mentioned, used a rotating disk with spiralled holes. This disk had 30 holes and rotated 12.5 times in a single second. The theory behind this invention was that you could view an image on the other side of the disk, the downfall was you needed a magnifying glass to do so. His mechanical television depended on the revolving disks to transfer the images from a transmitter to a receiver. Both the transmitter and the receiver had to have the disks, the holes were spaced around the disk each hole…

film takes place in Mr. Dorset’s office, and Johnny puts a magnifying glass up to his mouth; which we can infer that that scene was to symbolize his talkative nature. In the film, there are many ways to show being talkative, such as Sam dumping his head in a bucket of water to show he was tired of Red Chief’s yapping. In the office scene, a very interesting way to show Johnny’s constant chatter is to have him talk inside a magnifying glass to symbolize talkative behavior. (The Ransom Of Red…

a rage built up inside a person. An interesting line to pull out of this poem is,”Your rage is heat from a magnifying glass, focused, bursting into flame.”(Hajratwala 8-9) This line represents the strength of rage built up inside of someone.

In the case of this poem, the rage is the very hot energy…

was not until the completion of the thirteenth that lenses existed as they are today, even though their properties of convex plus concave clear items had long been known. Glass of reasonable quality had become relatively cheap and in the major glass-making centers of Venice and Florence techniques for grinding and polishing glass had reached a high state of development.…

Putting the glass makers together caused them to learn more from each other. I think of it like having a bag of marbles; if all the marbles are the same color then that is all you will get with no change; however, if you have multiple colors in the bag the possibilities of differences become larger. The glass makers being slightly spread out gave them some possibilities to mix together, but not nearly as many as when they were all isolated together. Their proximity to each other increased the…

surprised by his attention. There are three men as a painting on his right side looking as if they are jealous or concerned about what he is doing with the magnify glass. These are the few things that can be seen from the first glance of the painting. The artists seem so focused on examining on one spot of the portrait with his magnify glass he is oblivious of his surroundings. The facial expression of the painting on the wall shows the fact that he should look at things in a whole. Norman…

corner of an art museum, while many contour lines work together to create the organic shapes that make up the scene. Specifically, this painting depicts a young man who is leaning forward to inspect a portrait of a woman and looking through a magnifying glass to examine a brooch clasped close to her chest. Light and shadow are used to create the illusion of depth on the young man’s form; he almost appears to be three dimensional as he gazes at her portrait. The colors on the woman’s portrait…
