“The most common and most important result of them is that the nature and size of the effect on corresponding series of different elements are largely an expression of the peculiarity of their atomic structure - or, at least, of the structure of the surface.” ImportantDifferentResultsCommonEffectsExpressionElementsStructureSeriesSizeSurfaceCorrespondingAtomic Structure Author:Johannes Stark
“In Texas, years ago, almost all of the oil came from surface operations. Then someone got the idea that there were greater sources of supply deeper down. A well was drilled five thousand feet deep. The result? A gusher. Too many of us operate on the surface. We never go deep enough to find supernatural resources. The result is, we never operate at our best. More time and investment is involved to go deep but a gusher will pay off.” YearsWellsIdeasEnoughTimeResultsPayFiveGreaterFeetSourceInvolvedThousandResourcesYears AgoInvestmentDeeperSurfaceOilOperationsMore TimeTexasNatural Resources Author:Alfred Armand Montapert
“When a photon comes down, it interacts with electrons throughout the glass, not just on the surface. The photon and electrons do some kind of dance, the net result of which is the same as if the photon hit only on the surface.” IfsKindResultsGlassesSurfaceElectronsPhotons Book:QED: The Strange Theory of Light and Matter Source: QED: The Strange Theory of Light and Matter
“Many contemporary painters feel that their landscapes come from within and are brought to the surface and given form as a result of various stimuli. The artist's internal world is waiting to be evoked by whatever means the artist finds most productive, and... this world is just as important as the outer, visible world.” WorldFeelsMeanImportantFormArtistGivenWaitingResultsThis WorldPaintingVariousSurfaceContemporaryPainterLandscapeVisibleProductiveInternalsStimulus Author:Edward Betts

“Self-painting is a further development of painting. The pictorial surface has lost its function as sole expressive support. It was led back to its origins, the wall, the object, the living being, the human body. By incorporating my body as expressive support, occurrences arise as a result, the course of which the camera records and the viewer can experience” HumansSelfBodyCoursesLostResultsSupportRecordsObjectsPaintingWallDevelopmentFunctionCamerasSurfaceAriseSoleViewersHuman BodyExpressivePictorialIncorporating Author:Gunter Brus
“There is plenty of room left for exact experiment in art, and the gate has been opened for some time. What had been accomplished in music by the end of the eighteenth century has only begun in the fine arts. Mathematics and physics have given us a clue in the form of rules to be strictly observed or departed from, as the case may be. Here salutary discipline is come to grips first of all with the function of forms, and not with form as the final result … in this way we learn how to look beyond the surface and get to the root of things.” WayFirstsLooksMayHas BeensArtEndsFormLeftGivenRoomsResultsMusicCasesLearningCenturyFineDisciplineRootsFunctionMathematicsFinalsSurfacePhysicsExperimentsPlentyAccomplishedGatesClueFine ArtsDeparted Author:Paul Klee
