This paper examines graphic responses to the assignment The Future of Education. The project was undertaken by Information Design students at the Zagreb University of Applied Sciences, who visualized a highly relevant theme directly related to their own educational experience. The research presents graphic solutions that critically address the quality of education, its dependence on digital technologies, and the role of design in making knowledge clear, accessible, and inspiring. The findings indicate that graphic...

In this paper, we analyse graphic and multimedia works that the IT design students of the Zagreb University of Applied Sciences (TVZ) created during the semester as part of a communication strategy aimed at the general public. The students used tools and knowledge in graphic design and, taking into account all the settings for creating a quality design solution, presented their visual solutions under the mentorship of their professors. These works were exhibited during June and July 2024 at the Nikola Tesla Techni...

Years of research (since 2014) of the properties of colour twins based on InfraredArt theory the recording in the visible (V) and near-infrared (NIR) spectra, allowed the image to be depicted in two spectral ranges. Continued work in the field of InfraredArt painting led to the idea in 2022 of applying this artistic method to creating an artistic wool rug with a double (dual) image. This was made possible through collaboration with designers and technologists at the company reGalerija in Zabok. After numerous atte...

This paper explores the phenomenon of isolation in modern digital society. The topic wasdeveloped with a group of 90 IT design students in two generations. The positive andnegative aspects of isolation are presented through the eyes of the students of the ZagrebUniversity of Applied Sciences. An initiative and incentive is the project entitled Isolatedpeople and communities in Slovenia and Croatia - Isolation (IPS-2022-02-3741). Theproject itself examines the contemporary isolation in both countries, Slovenia andC...

We are surrounded by video surveillance cameras that register separately in two light areas: visible to our naked eye - Red, Green Blue record and near infrared record (NIR – Z). In this article, we present quantitative data on the measurement of light absorption for fine art colorants. We expand the theory and practice of Infrared Art by giving examples of artists who paint so-called "infrared pictures" as a new, different creation of a work of art, a new expressive possibility that the artist adapts to his artis...

The overpainted layers reveal the artist’s working process, the way he created his work in different phases until the final painting. Photographing paintings in near-infrared spectrum (NIR/IR reflectography) also provides protection against counterfeit art paintings. This paper investigates the intrinsic properties of colorant twins based on the InfraredArt theory, which expands the knowledge about the light absorption response in the visual (V) and near-infrared spectrum (NIR). The key support for the establishme...

A postage stamp is a security that goes down in history. The stamp we are presenting was designed and issued in Croatia, EU, on 24 September 2021, on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the Otorhinolaryngology Clinic in Croatia. This stamp contains new values through IRD, and that is exactly what we show and offer to philatelists. The stamp "100 years of otorhinolaryngology" has artistic beauty and scientific innovation in the development of twin colorants. In the visual solution of the stamp are embedded hid...
