• Autochrome process — The first industrial color photography process on glass plates, invented by the Lumière brothers in 1903 and marketed starting in 1907, based on the use of a mosaic of microscopic potato starch grains dyed in three primary colors (red-orange, green, and violet) acting as structural color filters. The result was a unique positive image, characterized by warm, pastel tones resembling Impressionist paintings.
• To self-define — To determine, formulate, or establish on one's own initiative one's own identity, essence, life principles, or social and cultural affiliation; to consciously and autonomously characterize oneself, formulating an internal definition of one's own ego. This behavior represents a structural mechanism of psychological individualization and existential self-affirmation.
• Self-defined — Having defined or characterized oneself through one's own will and consciousness; an individual, concept, or status determined autonomously, without validation or imposition from external factors. In a structural sense, it describes the state of a human subject who has clearly established their own existential and moral coordinates.
• Autolithography — A technial planographic printing process in which the artist draws or transfers the work directly onto the lithographic stone or onto a special autographic transfer paper (later transferred to stone), without resorting to the services of an intermediate engraver or technician. This graphic method ensures the faithful and unaltered preservation of the original stroke spontaneity, texture, and primary artistic vision of the creator within multiplied editions.
• Automatist — As a noun, it designates an engineer or technician specialized in the field of automatics, responsible for implementing and maintaining autonomous control systems. As an adjective, the term describes an artistic movement, a creative method, or a follower of surrealism (specifically the Canadian 'Les Automatistes' school) emphasizing pure psychic automatism, generating pictorial or literary artworks directly from subconscious impulses.
• Automatist — As a noun, it designates a female engineer or technician specialized in automatics, responsible for designing and maintaining autonomous control systems. As an adjective, it represents the feminine motion for the artistic movement or creative method based on pure psychic automatism, specific to the surrealist movement (such as 'Les Automatistes' school), where the composition is directly guided by subconscious impulses.
• Autoparallel — Maintaining or transporting itself parallel to itself along a curve with respect to a given affine connection; a structural subvariety or geometric curve whose tangent vectors remain parallel under parallel transport along that trajectory. In spaces with torsion, autoparallel curves differ from geodesics (which minimize distance), defining straight lines from the perspective of the pure parallelism of the space-time connection.
• Self-portrait — A portrait of an artist (painter, sculptor, photographer) created by themselves; a self-referential visual representation wherein the creator analyzes their own physical features and inner psychological state through their own aesthetic lens. In literature, the term denotes a detailed and often critical description or psychological analysis that a writer makes of their own person within an autobiographical work.
