    Study Notes

    Image Focus and Interpretation

    • Absence of Content: A blank image inherently lacks visual information, forcing the viewer to project their own interpretations and meaning onto it.
    • Subjective Interpretation: The viewer fills the blank space with their own thoughts, experiences, and emotions, creating a unique and personal interpretation.

    Psychological Effects

    • Openness and Blankness: A blank image can evoke feelings of emptiness, uncertainty, or even anxiety, as it offers no clear direction or meaning.
    • Introspection and Reflection: The lack of visual stimulation can encourage introspection, allowing viewers to delve into their internal thoughts and emotions.

    Contextual Effectiveness

    • Minimalism and Simplicity: Blank images are effective in minimalist designs, emphasizing simplicity and allowing the viewer's focus to rest on other elements.
    • Conceptual Art: In conceptual art, a blank canvas can represent the artist's intention to challenge established norms and invite viewers to engage with the concept itself.

    Artistic Interpretation

    • Potential and Unfinished: A blank canvas in art serves as a symbol of potential, representing the possibilities that lie ahead for the artist. It signifies a state of being unfinished and waiting for creation.

    Information Processing

    • Informatics is the study of how to process information.
    • Computers are a tool for storing and processing information.
    • Processing is an action done by a processor.
      • The processor follows a set of actions on a set of information.
    • Algorithms are step-by-step instructions that solve a problem.
      • They take information as input and produce a result.
      • Algorithms must be defined before a program can be created.

    Program Development

    • A program is formed by following a series of steps:
      • Abstraction: Define the problem and select the necessary information.
      • Translation: Define the language for communicating with the computer.
      • Compilation: Compile the program to execute the instructions.

    Hardware, Software & Firmware

    • Hardware is the physical structure of a computer.
      • It is composed of electronic and electromechanical components.
    • Software is a set of programs that allow the user to manage the operating system and perform specific tasks.
    • Firmware is software dedicated to components that are used directly by the components, but not necessarily by the user.
      • It loads part of the operating system into memory.

    Levels of Representation

    • Compilers are virtual machines that read and interpret assembly language and translate it to machine language for hardware.
    • The higher the programming language (Java, C++, SQL), the more difficult it is for the computer to translate into machine language.
      • The highest level of representation is closer to human interpretation and uses symbols.
      • The lowest level of representation is closer to the machine's processing mechanism and uses numbers.
      • It allows for data conversion from analog to digital and vice versa.
    • Computers are called digital binary because:
      • Digital means they use numerical data.
      • Binary means they use two voltage values to represent data.

    Binary Representation

    • Computers use voltage values to represent digital data.
      • Low voltage values represent 0.
      • High voltage values represent 1.
    • Using only two voltage values simplifies the computer’s work by:
      • Reducing the margin of error from perturbations.
      • Providing an absolute state representation, like on/off, black/white, true/false.
    • The fundamental unit of information is the bit (Binary Digit).
    • The number of information bits determines the number of values that can be represented:
      • 2^n represents the number of combinations with n bits.
      • n represents the number of bits.
    • To calculate the number of values from the number of combinations, use log2(X).
      • X is the number of combinations.

    Bit Structure and Byte Table

    • 4 bits equal a half-byte.
    • 8 bits equal a byte.
    • 16/32/64 bits equal a word.
    • Multiplication of bits with base 2 and power n:
      • 2^2 = 4
      • 2^10 = 1024 (1 Kilo (K))
      • 2^20 = 1,048,576 (1 Mega (M))
      • 2^30 = 1,073,741,824 (1 Giga (G))
      • 2^40 = 1,099,511,627,776 (1 Tera (T))
      • 2^50 = 1,125,899,906,842,624 (1 Peta (P))
    • Multiplication of bytes with base 2 and power n:
      • 2^2 = 4
      • 2^10 = 1024 (1 KiloBYTE (K))
      • 2^20 = 1,048,576 (1 MegaBYTE (M))
      • 2^30 = 1,073,741,824 (1 GigaBYTE (G))
      • 2^40 = 1,099,511,627,776 (1 TeraBYTE (T))
      • 2^50 = 1,125,899,906,842,624 (1 PetaBYTE (P))
    • In binary representation, every information is structured in terms of the elementary unit of information, the bit.
