                       LINDSAY MACDONALD

                  organised by Eurographics UK.

    Friday 20 November 1992, at Cosenor's House, Abingdon, Oxford. UK.

DESCRIPTION: This tutorial will cover both theoretical and practical
aspects of the perception and use of colour in computer graphics and
imaging applications.  The morning sessions will provide an overview of how
we see, organise and model colour, with reference to recent research into
colour appearance modelling.  The afternoon sessions will deal with
displays and printing processes, with practical techniques for calibration
and colour control, plus guidelines for making the best use of colour for
the presentation of information in displays. The tutorial comprises four
modules, as follows:

   - Light, colour and human vision
   - Colour appearance and modelling
   - Reproduction of colour in display and print
   - Guidelines for using colour effectively in displays
