Axonometric Sketch - More Dimensions

A photocollage of my axonometric sketches. For the original scans, please see
the page entitled "Scanned Sketchwork". Featuring the tetris pieces!

Another photomerge, with the focus on cubic construction and
texturing planes.

The original concept sketch which is the basis for the Experiment

YouTube Goodness

The wonders of Ferrofluid, magnetically charged liquid, capable of deforming and manipulating itself under the influence of flux. Modelling this kind of thing makes my brain melt, but it certainly does give a good reference for texture and materials.

Section SketchUp

Working from a section sketch to a model, and then from a model to section sketch to compare results.

One Sketch Upped

SketchUp Miscellanea. On the rare occasion something I create in SketchUp doesn't resemble the internal organs of roadkill, I save the model. On the even rarer occasion that that model turns into something that resembles a building, I render a view that hides the majority of it's shocking composition.

Once Upon A Blog

STEP 1: CREATE A BLOG

Well, that's the easy part done.

STEP 2: POST THREE IMAGES
A) YOUR BEST PIECE OF CREATIVE WORK BEFORE COMING TO UNIVERSITY

This is a quick animation I did about a year ago, simply for the purpose of challenging myself with PhotoShop and a few other programs. It took me just under two hours, which was mainly work on the background image. I've done better, but as the original, this is the most creative (in my opinion any way). I think it's pretty interesting, as illusions and optical trickery is always cool.

B)AN IMAGE OF A GREAT PIECE OF ARCHITECTURE

Designed by Polish partners Klausdiusz Golos and Sebastian Mikiciuk, the "Upside Down House" is one of my favourite pieces of architecture. A bit of googling pulled up the information that my memory had long since forgotten. The great thing about this architecture is that it uses something very simple to create a very dramatic effect. By taking the basic concept of inversion and applying it at every level of design and construction, this building is a challenge to both perception and ways of thinking.

C)AN ORIGINAL PHOTOGRAPH OF SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL

I am fairly shocking at photography, and not having a camera is my way of ensuring that my horrible photo's never come into existence. However, this is one of the few pictures I've taken that came out okay. A borrowed point-and-shoot camera is a wonderful thing. This is the beauty of industry, of machinery, of mechanism.

Scratch That... Start Over

After a veritable mountain of technical difficulties, I've finally caved and just made an entirely new blog. This is assessable after all, so I'd rather not have the internet equivalent of a burnt-out wreck for marking purposes. So, the posts from the Old Blog are below, or rather, above. I will try to make it as sensible as possible, but no promises.
