Zaven Paré

Zaven Paré is a engineering topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Zaven Paré rather than just read about it. In short: Zaven Paré is a French new media artist born in 1961. Life Painter for state manufacture of tapestry of Beauvais in 1987, he worked for the Manufacture des Gobelins N.I.M.E.S. project on the replacement of Chevreul's cabinet.

Key takeaways

Zaven Paré belongs to engineering; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Zaven Paré to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Zaven Paré from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Zaven Paré is a French new media artist born in 1961.

Life Painter for state manufacture of tapestry of Beauvais in 1987, he worked for the Manufacture des Gobelins N.I.M.E.S. project on the replacement of Chevreul's cabinet. He became painter for the Manufacture nationale de Sèvres in 1991. In 1988, he created his first inflate structure for the set design of the choreographer Marie Chouinard, for the Olympics Arts Festival of Calgary, and started working for Edouard Lock. He drew the circular video projection screens for the 1990 David Bowie tour and designed a sound installation for Mauricio Kagel in 1992 at the Museum of Contemporary Art of Montreal. In 1998 he designed a double slope floor for the set design of Don Giovanni at the Opéra Bastille. In 1996, Zaven Paré designed his first Electronic Marionette from a source of video retro-projection in Canada, followed in 1999 by the digital version (digital puppetry with electronic guidance), controlled with a keyboard, for the show which he directed at the Cotsen Center for Puppetry of CalArts (California Institute of the Arts). In 2002, he projected the analogic version of his electronic marionette, controlled by voice, this time for Valère Novarina at the Festival d'Avignon. Those two marionettes are respectively in the collection of the Ballard Institute and Museum of Puppetry and the Gadagne Museum. Zaven Paré is one of the researchers of the Robot Actors Project of Professor Hiroshi Ishiguro.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Zaven Paré

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Zaven Paré claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In engineering, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Zaven Paré before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Zaven Paré ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Zaven Paré

In research: Zaven Paré appears in engineering research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Zaven Paré in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Zaven Paré is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1961 births, Artists from Algiers, French artists, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Zaven Paré outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
