(IL. - Chicago) SIGGRAPH 92., Skidmore, Owings & Merill - Clark & Brown, 1992Computer power and the age of computer aided drafting begin to mesh and accelerate into a vision of wha t could be. This stylized glimpse of a chunk of downtown Chicago captures something of the new digital hope of precision, dimensionality and design. Showing some key landmark buildings that are immediately recognizable, we begin to see the budding potential of a new way to depict a city. The verso discusses the process and digital components of the work (just the water feature contains "11,762 polygons"). A rare and locally produced work on the brink of a new era. Condition is very good, almost pristine (far better than our scan depicts) Overall size is approximately 39 x 26 (inches) Show more
