![]() ![]() For example: should the preview display complete pages with page breaks etc?Īlso, let’s say that to start with, you (as the user) edit the styles of the current document only. However, the layouting part needs some more thinking. But it appears that Atom is not quite ready for that kind of customization (line-height cannot be customized by a package and there are glitches with my CSS if you resize the window).Ĭoupled with pandoc as the markdown engine, we’d be already quite far. So I started a proof of concept to make Atom look more like iA Writer. Then we would get collaborative editing, split screen, Vim-mode and other customizations for free. I’m considering building this editor on top of GitHub’s Atom editor. There are some programs that have gone into this direction:īut they are targeted at web designers and not paired with a text or markdown editor. Not unlike changing CSS live in a modern browser’s web developer tools. That’s how I got back to an old idea of mine: creating a markdown editor, that also has a preview pan in which you can change the CSS styles live with a simple GUI. So why can’t we have the best of both worlds? Styling by template and immediate feedback when tweaking the style. However, the WYSIWYG-editors got one thing right: if and when the time for layouting has come, it is better to get immediate feedback on the design, instead of having to start a batch process which applies the layout and you see the result only after a couple of seconds (or often worse with LaTeX). Say what you mean and worry about the style later.” Proportional fonts suggest “This is as good as done” and stand in an intimidating contrast to a raw draft.Īnd for quite some time, I thought this was the end of the discussion. The typographic rawness of a monospace font tells the writer: “This is not about how it looks, but what it says. ![]() In contrast to proportional fonts that communicate “this is almost done” monospace fonts suggest “this text is work in progress.” It is the more honest typographic choice for a text that is not ready to publish. That’s also the reason why the team behind iA Writer went with a monospace font for their editor: There is a much saner way of doing things: you first write the content (in Markdown, HTML or LaTeX), and only in a second step apply the layout (CSS or LaTeX template). At the same time as writing content, you style individual pieces of text (individual paragraphs, or even individual characters if you want to), which is very cumbersome and error-prone. Yet it’s well known that Word sucks, and in part that’s because it doesn’t separate writing from layouting. While I agree with it on the most part, it has that curious passage where the author proclaims WYSIWYG text editors like Word superior, as they provide immediate feedback to the user how the layout on the printed page is going to look like.

![]() ![]() Kap G’s latest tape, Like a Mexican, is a testament to the label’s support, pulling in original beats from Pharrell, Drumma Boy and Bangladesh as well as features from Young Jeezy, Wiz Khalifa and Texas Latin-rap legend Chingo Bling. It’s about time: while the city has become America’s de-facto hub for club music over the past decade or so, its Hispanic population has been growing, too, multiplying five-fold in the metro area since 1990. The label seems to have devoted real resources to making Kap G Atlanta’s first Mexican-American rap star. ![]() and Yelawolf-and he became Kap G’s manager, helping him land him a deal with Atlantic. That track caught the ear of Kawan Prather-an Atlanta record executive who nurtured the early careers of Outkast, T.I. While Kap G’s brother was visiting Chicago, a barber introduced him to Keef’s music the brother tracked down the rising star, who agreed to record a guest verse for Kap G’s song immediately after hearing its twinkling beat. His breakout was 2012’s “Tatted Like Amigos,” featuring Chief Keef, a serendipitous collaboration that started with a haircut, of all things. ![]() I ain’t no lazy dude, but I knew I had to do something different.”Īt Tri-Cities High School, Kap G started freestyling over instrumentals from local stars like Gucci Mane and Yung LA, an approach he continues today with tongue-in-cheek flips on Atlanta hits like “Versace,” at one point turning the hook into tamale, tamale, tamale. ![]() “They woke up at four in the morning-work, work, work. “I saw how hard my brothers grinded,” Kap G says.

The family lived there until an older brother joined a gang in grammar school wary of raising their children in a violent environment, they headed east, landing in College Park, GA, the Atlanta suburb that just so happens to have given birth to Outkast, 2 Chainz and Ludacris. The youngest of seven children, Kap G was born George Ramirez in Long Beach, CA, where his parents emigrated in the late ’80s. “It’s very beautiful, but poor,” he says, describing a visit to the family seat.

Kap G’s Mexican heritage is often portrayed in his videos, he claims that him being a Mexican-American only add another angle to his rap career. He was born in Grady Hospital, and people born there are referred to as ‘Grady Baby’. Before Kap G was born, one of his brothers was a gang member while only six years old, when his mom found out, she decided to move the family to College Park where Kap G would later be born. He has four brothers and one sister he’s the youngest in his family. Though Kap G was born in America, both of his parents are Mexicans whom moved to California.

Edward Cullen states that all human blood is equally tempting to Jasper, unlike the rest of the family, who can notice the variations in blood scent in different humans. He was not taught to control or how to regulate his blood lust. Out of the whole coven, Jasper has the hardest time being around humans, due to his untrained upbringing as a young vampire in an army environment. ![]() When he became a member of the Cullen family and while attending high school, Jasper changed his surname of Whitlock to his adoptive sister Rosalie’s surname of “Hale” and poses as her twin due to their physical similarities. He didn’t know such a thing could exist but he followed her. Later, he meets Alice in a diner in Philadelphia, and together, with the help of Alice’s ‘sight’, they search for Carlisle and his family, she also tells him about the ability to survive off of animal instead of human blood. After a few years living as nomads in the Northern U.S, Peter and Charlotte came back and told Jasper about the way vampires could coexist in the North, and he left with them. When Peter ran off with Charlotte, a newborn that they were supposed to kill, Jasper let them go. While in the army, he befriended a newborn named Peter, who Maria decided to let live. Jasper commanded Maria’s newborn army that participated in the Southern Vampire wars. When he became a vampire, he gained the ability to feel and manipulate people’s emotions. Jasper was a major in the Confederate Army in Texas until he was turned into a vampire one dark night by Maria and two others, who were later destroyed by Jasper and Maria when they became of no use and were planning to defeat them and take over. Fortunately, he was eventually found by Alice, the love of his life and with her began a life with the peaceful coven of the Cullen family. However, Jasper became tired of this violent and bloodlust life and eventually became a nomad. After the transformation, Jasper aided Maria in her creation of a newborn vampire army which successfully conquered the feeding grounds of Texas.

Various tools such as the Golden Ratio are often used in artworks to represent the underlying divine ratio in nature. It is easy to draw hard distinctions between tessellating artists, mathematicians, and scientists, but in each field of expertise, these lines become blurred when dealing with the subject of geometrically based art forms.Īrtists employ a multitude of mathematically based techniques to create works of art that are pleasing to the eye because they speak directly to our subconscious appreciation of symmetry. No matter which school of thought we wish to view tessellation through, the common thread throughout is a desire to utilize various techniques to help better understand and express the world around us. These tessellating artists employed a style called “zellige”, which had its roots in the Islamic belief in universal intelligence, the artists tried to portray the laws that preside over the universe.īefore we can further discuss examples of tessellation art, it is important to mention the intrinsic connection between art, mathematics, and science. Islamic zellige mosaic ceramic tile tessellations in Marrakech, Morocco Ian Alexander, CC BY-SA 3.0, via Wikimedia CommonsĪside from applying stylistic tessellation ideas to their architecture, they also designed their pottery and textiles with tessellation patterns. Islamic art forbids the representation of living forms, so it was the perfect environment for a style to develop that was based on the application of geometric shapes. Specifically the regions of North Africa, Maghreb, and the Iberian Peninsula during the Middle Ages. The finest examples of tessellation patterns in architecture and art can be found in Islam. Not only was the geometry of tessellation patterns fascinating to the tessellating artists, but intellectuals too began to show a deep interest in the mathematical structure of these tessellating patterns found from the Middle Ages and through the 19th century. Many of these designs have regional characteristics, which make them unique to the people and culture they originated from. Modern archeologists have uncovered many beautiful examples of tessellation art created by the Sumerian civilization, where it then spread to many other ancient civilizations such as the Romans, Chinese, Greek, Egyptians, Arabs, Moors, and Persians. ![]() The use of tessellation patterns in temples and homes can be traced back to sometime in 4,000 BC in Sumeria. Tessellation pattern of a street pavement in Zakopane, Poland Dmharvey, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons This hints at the historical use of tessellation ideas that stretch far back into our history when small tiles made of glass, stone, or clay were used to create patterns on public and domestic surfaces. The word derives from the Latin word tessellātus (square small stones) and the Greek word tessera (four). The use of tessellation ideas and concepts throughout our history has resulted in the creation of beautifully decorated architecture, such as temples and mosques, as well as magnificent works of art.Īn understanding of ancient languages in history can help one better understand the tessellation definition. Also known as tiling, this process results in a mosaic pattern that can be used in a highly creative manner, despite its largely confining mathematical structure. What is Tessellation? Tessellation art is created through the process of covering a surface with a number of geometric shapes that fit together almost like a jig-saw puzzle, never overlapping and leaving no spaces between them. 3.2 Are People Still Creating Tessellation Art Today?.Escher’s Work Considered to Be Tessellation Art? 1.1 A Brief History of Tessellation Patterns. ![]() |
