An effort to realize the implied movement in many of Bridget Riley's Op-Art paintings. A fully procedural / digital museum created in Unity.
I saw your previous project, and indeed it captured the illusion of motion seen in Fall. Really curious to see how the vignettes will be animated; already the eyes input a lot of perceived motion. Unfortunately I was not able to play the video, but will definitely install the player to see the result of this one. And I'm curious as to how animation would improve on this.
Just a small thinking out loud thing, and really a small consideration, but it might be interesting to think about how to transition between the vignettes and how those transitions may contribute to the expression of the pieces.
Hi! Sorry for the late comment!
Your previous recreation is straightforward in its approach but very deep and thought-provoking in its outcome and implication.
And I love the part you talked about "imperfection" and "human touch" in arts in the previous project. I think it would be very exciting to explore more on that in this creative project and possibly link that to the reason why you can make money from it.
Though I am not sure whether the "vignettes" that you are describing is the one I am thinking, the concept is really interesting!!
Your project is amazing!!!! I really like your idea of transforming 2D visual illusions into 3D context. I'm also very impressed by the amount of time you spent on this, as you said, up to 3 hours each piece. Your work seems PERFECT to me, and I just think I should let you know that I really love it! Wonderful job! I hope you can talk more about how you came up with this idea tomorrow in class :D
This is awesome.. I especially love the untitled-1. I never thought the pictures could actually move in this way! I can't find more words to applause the idea of introduction of 3d in the medium of 2d. I can't let my eyes off from your animation. It would be so cool if you should show these to the original artists. I hope we can see this on big screen tomorrow in class. Nice job!
This is so very eye opening! Your idea of transforming 2d artworks into 3d animations is not only creative but also challenging to implement. I've used Blender before just for simple rendering and manipulation of 3d objects, but never thought of incorporating it into 3d animation. I look forward to seeing you present your project in class. Nice job!
This project is really awesome. It's really clear you put a lot of thought and work into it. In my opinion, you did a really good job of translating the implied motion of these pieces into actual 3 dimensional motion. I like how you chose these specific pieces in order to focus on motion. Maybe it would've been even more interesting if you'd made the paintings more interactive. I would really love to see this presented in class regardless.
Parroting what others are saying here, but it should continue to be reinforced that your work actually 100% created something that allows you to experience in a novel way. It's clear effort went into this and the effect isn't lost on the casual viewer: anyone can clearly see what you've managed to do just by watching any of the gifs themselves.
Optical illusions are not illusions without movements. Your project perfectly demonstrated Bridget Riley's intended effect, enabling people to experience and immerse in this visual experience without any movement of eyes. You also incorporated points and lines to form contrast of their movements. 100/10 for effort and documentation. The digitalized art represents your thoughtful work and shows your intention of combining arts with technology. Great composition!
I found this to be a very creative and interesting project. The implementation of the image from an analog to a digital medium is almost perfect. I found the creative license that you took with the images to really show how impressive this work really is. Not only did you recreate these images in a new medium, but you completely recreated them to what you believed they would look like in a 3D environment. Well done!
