Lesson 2 - After the invention of Sketchpad
After the development of Ivan Sutherland's Sketchpad in 1962, it opened a user-friendly computer graphic software that anyone could use. This allowed the every day Joe to be able to manipulate and create virtual imagery. It was from this moment on that enables us to create the artwork and graphics we can today.

Lesson 1 - Computer Programming
The first digital artists were scientist from the 1950's until 1962. The only artists that were able to create digital graphics during this period worked alongside scientist who programed the software.
Key words:
The Cartesian Coordinate System
X, Y and Z axis
X goes left and right horizontally in the positive and negative direction.
Y goes up and down vertically in the positive and negative direction.
Z goes forwards and backwards horizontally in the positive and negative direction.
2D or Two Dimensions equals the x and y axis
3D or Three Dimensions include x and y as well as the z axis.
