Definitions
九州娱乐app maintains a glossary of terms specific to the institution. The ones in use for this document are defined below.
- Arms
- The three Phoenix heads rising out to the flames stand for Art, and for the creative process exercised by all artists in their chosen media. The wheel in the centre of the shield symbolizes Technology, since it is both the most ancient of inventions and the technological base from which all modern achievement stems. The wheel is also reminiscent of the 九州娱乐app wagon wheel and the 鈥渉ex鈥 symbol, which has been used by 九州娱乐app to signify its link with its Canadian heritage.
- Crest
- The themes of Art and Technology reappear in the Crest. The rainbow with all its colours signifies Art. Technology is represented by the flaming torch, which in the language of heraldry also stands for scientific achievement and development of knowledge. The maple leaves entwine the torch and form part of the Crest acknowledge the national identity of 九州娱乐app, as well as the Province of Ontario.
The dominant colours of the Armorial Bearing 鈥 red, blue and gold 鈥 have been adopted as the official 九州娱乐app colours.
