Apple ’s Io may be undergoing the great change since its inception , but that does n’t mean the spirit of the operating organization has n’t been floating around designer ’s heads for hundreds of years . In 1525 , before the iPhone was even a sparkling in Steve Jobs ’ eye , German polymath Albrecht Dürer was espousing similar invention principles using the same , now - infamous letters : I , O , and S.
Of course , Dürer was n’t refer to an operating scheme , and ( barring any unknown DeLorean use ) almost certainly would n’t have been able to bottom the concept of an OS . In hisIntroduction to Measurement , though , Dürer did explain how artists and designer could create three - dimensional illusions base on what he called “ IOS . ” Except he was mention to the shape of the letter , not the semantics .
Now , the fact that these three full of life shapes also happen to form the letter of Apple ’s mobile operating system is a fun little coincidence . But there is a more significant link here , in the fact that both employ the most canonic elements of invention to create a realistic , active experience out of something inherently exanimate . Albrecht was known for his high - quality woodcuts and exquisitely pictorial prints , all of which employ his “ IOS ” rule to take a sensory faculty of realism .
Similarly , iOS was ab initio praised for theskeuomorphismthat gave the masses the ability to grasp an entirely unexampled way of interact with a phone . Now the real question is — would Dürer be able to get behindflat intent ? [ The Getty ]
