<p>Hello @ all,</p>
<p>i just have a short strange question and i hope someone can help me. 
I’m a german student and i have to find out, if there is/was “painting with the hand” in an Introduction Cource of Computer Graphics at the Brown Universtiy.
(ye right, with a pencil and a sheet of paper like in an Course of Art etc.)</p>
<p>This may sounds like a strange joke but im serious with that question. ^^</p>
<p>So i need someone, who sudies Computer Science at Brown and has passed some Coures of Computer Graphics. :)</p>
<p>I hope my english is good enough, so u can understand everything.</p>
<p>Thx in advance and Greetz from Europe.</p>

<p>Graphics at Brown focuses on graphic programming, not graphic creation, though the combination of resources here on campus and at RISD can make for an excellent experience in both creating and programming graphics.</p>
<p>We happen to be one of the best places in the world to study graphics programming. Andy Van Dam, the gentleman who started the department and still teaches the intro course to both the whole CS department and to graphics, pretty much created the field of graphics programming.

<p>Here is a description of our course CSCI1230: Introduction to Computer Graphics--</p>
<p>Fundamental concepts in 2D and 3D computer graphics, e.g., 2D raster graphics techniques, simple image processing, and user interface design. Focuses on geometric transformations, and 3D modeling, viewing and rendering. Prerequisite: CS 16 or 18 (CSCI 0160) or (CSCI 0180); either CS 32 or 36 (CSCI 0320) or (CSCI 0360) is strongly recommended. Students who don't know C++ should take the minicourse offered during the first week of the semester. MA 52 (MATH 0520) helpful.</p>
<p>Thats what i expected after i was looking at the lectures on Brown's internetpage of the graphic intro-course. </p>
<p>Thx, for the infos. </p>
<p>Greetz Graph</p>
