During summer 2000, served as a mentor for the University of Minnesota Multicultural Undergraduate Research Program [MURP] (http://www.oma.umn.edu/mad/programs/msdp.html; documentation available) (later known as the Multicultural Summer Research Opportunities Program [MSROP] at the University of Minnesota)... for further information, see and contact https://grad.umn.edu/diversity; and was first to lead graphic design seminars as part of the University of Minnesota Design Institute's first "Design Camp" for high school students (documentation available). The following information about the Multicultural Summer Research Opportunities Program (MSROP) at the University of Minnesota is quoted from http://www.grad.umn.edu/outreach/research/MSROP/ :
“Program History: Established in 1986, the Multicultural Summer Research Opportunities Program (MSROP) at the University of Minnesota provides undergraduates an opportunity to develop research and inquiry skills with a faculty mentor on an individual basis or as part of a research team, which may include graduate students, research scientists, technicians and other MSROP students. Through the mentoring process, students are introduced to the methodology of their chosen discipline by involving them in research and other scholarly activities. Such involvement is expected to improve the quality of the students' undergraduate experience, to enhance the likelihood of their completing bachelor’s degrees, and to attract larger numbers of prepared students of color to graduate or professional schools.”
"Program Goals: MSROP is directed by four goals: (1) to encourage undergraduate students to give graduate education serious consideration following completion of their undergraduate studies; (2) to provide talented students with faculty mentors who will introduce them to the methodology of the chosen discipline by involving them in research and scholarly activities; (3) to create an environment in which the participant and the faculty mentor will be able to assess realistically the student’s potential for and interest in graduate studies; and (4) to provide a sense of community among the students and an opportunity to develop the networking skills important to building professional bonds within the community.”

Larkin, Eugene. Design, the search for unity: two and three dimensional design, drawing and color. Dubuque, Iowa: William C. Brown Publishers,* 1988. Design: the Search For Unity is a basic visual composition and design text. Book “designer: Mark Elliott Christianson” [Ibid., as noted on copyright page]; “cover calligraphy: by Terry Webb” [Ibid., as noted on copyright page]; “cover image: by Dawn Wilsey 1985” [Ibid., as noted on copyright page]; “Patrick Redmond” cited in “Acknowledgments”: “The grouping diagrams and illustrations of depth perception cues are by graduate student Patrick Redmond.” [Ibid., p. xv] [Patrick Redmond 05.01.2013 note: These relatively low-resolution images (coarsely pixelated by today’s standards) were created with a pioneering “standalone” computer graphics system, the “Wasatch 400 Computer Paint System” (www.wasatch.com and www.computergraphicsmuseum.org), considered “state of the art” at the time, during/circa 1984. Patrick Redmond demonstrated this system at the 1984 SIGGRAPH (www.siggraph.org/about/acm-siggraph-overview) Convention “SIGGRAPH ‘84”, July 23-27, 1984, in Minneapolis, and Patrick Redmond and Deborah Bart demonstrated the system at the 1984 ACM Convention in Anaheim, California (see www.acm.org)]; [05.01.2013 note: Patrick Redmond created the computer graphic images using the Wasatch 400 computer paint system, circa 1984 [P.R. to confirm dates of images)… Ibid. : image p. 4; Figs. 1.1-1.4, p. 7; Figs. 1.5-1.7, p. 8; Figs. 1.8-1.10, p. 9; Figs. 1.12 & 1.13, p. 11; Figs. 2.15 & 2.16, p. 25; Figs. 2.23 & 2.24, p.29; Figs. 2.30 & 2.31, p. 33; Fig. 9.1, p 166; Fig. 9.2, p. 167; Fig. 9.3, p. 168; Fig. 9.4, p. 169; Fig. 9.5, p. 170; Fig. 9.6, p. 171; and Patrick Redmond, not using the Wasatch 400, created the original pencil drawing, caption “Patrick Redmond. 1982. Pencil drawing,” Fig. 4.2, p. 52, demonstrating “Charting Linear Continuations” using “the tracing paper technique” (p. 53)… Patrick Redmond’s pencil drawing demonstrates “charted linear continuations” in Fig 4.1, p. 52, “P. Brueghel (Bauerntanz), The Peasant Dance, 44 7/8” x 64 ½”, Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna.” Also of related note: Patrick Redmond had seen the original Brueghel painting The Peasant Dance at the Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna, when he visited Vienna, Austria, in 1973. Patrick Redmond is also cited “Redmond, Patrick, 52” in the Index, p. 287. Re: Wasatch 400, see Bart, Deborah L. and Singher, Mary L. "From the Drawing Board to the Keyboard: The evolution of computer graphics is changing approaches to and attitudes about the graphic design business," Minnesota Business Journal, Minneapolis, Vol. 10, No. 1, January 1986, p. 44, 46, 48, 50. [Note: Patrick Redmond quoted on p. 48, 50.]; the Wasatch 400 computer paint system is shown in photographs in this article.
Bagley, Marian-Ortolf and Barbara Ann Caron. Color in Design and Applied Art: A Selective Annotative Bibliography compiled by Marian-Ortolf Bagley and Barbara Ann Caron. College of Design, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis-Saint Paul, Minnesota, 2011. "This is an online book available at https://design.umn.edu/research/research-creative-scholarship-engagement/faculty-research/color-design-applied-arts." Note: As a graduate student of Professor Marian-Ortolf Bagley at the University of Minnesota during the 1980s when he was completing his Master of Arts, Patrick Redmond is grateful to have been included in this project. He searched for, identified, reviewed, and researched many design-related books and is proud to have provided numerous bibliographic citations and annotations, including, for example: "464. Denton, Craig. Graphics for Visual Communication. Dubuque, IA: Wm. C. Brown, 1992. Index, bibl., glossary, B/W illus., color illus. ISBN 0-697-08540-6. This excellent and comprehensive text covers both “editorial communication” for newspaper and magazine production and “persuasive communication” for advertising and public relations. Introductory chapters place graphics within historical, environmental, and psychological contexts, the latter with reference to Gestalt perception principles. Next, consideration is given to design, typographic, color, and photographic principles. The rest is packed with background and practical information on application and desktop and traditional production methods and technology. A color chapter with many color plates briefly surveys the physical, physiological, environmental, cultural, technological, symbolic, and aesthetic contexts for color and summarizes color connotations. Other color topics include hue, value, and saturation, and conventional 12-hue circles demonstrate complementary, split complementary, triad, and tetrad relationships. A color contrast section reminiscent of Itten touches on afterimage, simultaneous contrast, light/dark contrast, warm/cold contrast, and color proportion. A discussion of color reproduction summarizes additive and subtractive color mixing. Intended as a general reference, the book contains helpful marginal notes, concluding summaries and lists of six or more points to remember for each chapter." --Patrick Redmond. Note: Patrick Redmond recommended this book for inclusion. He had "discovered" and acquired the book and, after approval, had used it as a required textbook in various introductory courses he had taught at the University of Minnesota. Since Patrick Redmond is a dedicated, practicing professional graphic designer, over the years he had acquired numerous design-related books. Among other books he recommended and annotated for this project, some were from his own personal collection, including several that were out-of-print and no longer available and others that were highly specialized in the field. -pr
