Today was the second day of Siggraph Asia. Some of the Emerging Technologies exhibits were pretty neat. I chanced upon Jun Fujiki (Kyushu University/JSPS) showing his nifty little optical illusion game. Something clicked in my mind, so I made a lucky guess and indeed he turned out to be the father of the Echochrome game. Some of the other exhibits, like the Optical Tone, a dynamic color light source object in the shape of a tumber which you can swing around, was also highly fun and interesting. Some of the other displays were lame, unimaginative and not quite emerging.
The Electronic Theatre was good too, one clip entitled "The Moment" was really short but really captured my attention. It showed a slow motion reaction of a lady experiencing a car crash, as the windscreen shatters and the airbag inflates, she witnesses something really unusual... The overall screening was a good 2 hours of fun and entertainment.
So, what have I done? Here's a taste of my CG art work from almost 10 years ago. I promise I will come out of hibernation and finally do something new and personal. Meanwhile, allow me to reminisce on my past glory(?). These images were created for a PS2 racing game released in Korea about 5 years back, the car in the second image was an original design.
