This time’s final assignment for Blender was a mix of sadness and joy. The sadness came from taking some wrong turns during the production process and feeling dissatisfied with the final work. However, the joy was in learning about a currently popular technology and hands-on experience in creating a model. I think this experience was …

WP2WS Project C– Journey of the Fool
The overall process of this final project might best be described as bittersweet. Despite a challenging journey and a less-than-ideal presentation outcome, I personally find it somewhat acceptable. Let’s start with the guidelines: – Research online about inspiring projects that are relevant to the visuals, concepts and techniques of your project. Initially, I hadn’t even …
This assignment is interesting and yet difficuit at the same time, luckly I was able to find lots of videos and examples online to help me. However, because I was a bit too anxious when working on the assignment, I fail to take images of my working process ontime, in the end when I remember …
Virtual Self and Other: Concept Development and Case Study
Among these readings, one is struck by the profound implications of virtual reality (VR) on our perception of self, others, and the environment around us. Each article delves into different facets of VR, yet together they paint a complex picture of how VR reshapes our experiences and understandings. In “The Virtual and the Real,” itsuggests …

W09 – Navigation with Camera and Controls
The assignment allows me to use my midterm project, so I will do that instead of starting a new project, which is nice because just a couple days ago I was still thinking on how to improve this project and had some idea. First start, nothing special, I added a line of code for GUI …

Project B – 04 Delievables
This project so far has been challenging and at the same time fun, as solving each problem one by one is like solving a puzzle. Now, lets be clear that I am not the full creator of my code, for many parts of my code, I had to find methods and tutorials online. Here is …
WP2WS – Generative 3D Structures
I have realized that I forgot to submit the part of the project that is due on the 27th. Although this is obviously unacceptable, I think I could be slightly excused since the project news is posted on the 26th and the due date is on the 27th. Although the project is not at all …
3D Minimal Sculpture with Three.js
To be honest, I feel lost during this assignment. With pressure on both the time limit, which the assignment comes in Mondady, and has to be turn in by Wednesday, and also the complete unfamilarity in Three.js. This assignment, I do have to admit, is nothing but a merely repica of what we have did …
Imaginary Environment with Forces
With some learning this assignment went okay. I started off thinking it would be nice to create a scene of windy day, with leaves falling down. By setting the variables and creating the list I begun the assignment. I created the class in another js file. I originally think that the class should probably have …
W01 – Generative Visuals with Transformations and Vectors in p5.js
For this assignment I would say that it was really a challenge. To be fairly honest I have been using P5 for many classes in IMA, but such usage rarely connects with vector and any higher level functions, so this is new stuff for me. This assignment starts out in a struggle. I originally thinks …
