Demetri Suttle: Week 3 Fountain




Intent:
When thinking about this project, the first location to come to mind was the reflection pools that run through the center of the University. They are a beautiful feature that adds a great atmosphere to the campus.

Technique:
While brainstorming ideas i decided i wanted to still capture the beauty of the gentle waters while infusing a more futuristic look with the projection. For this reason i decided to go with the  "caustics" material since it resembled water slightly and still had an interesting look. I decided to go with blue for the material because i feel it does a good job of tying the animation into the environment around it while still having a unique flair that sets it apart.

Final thoughts:
While working in MadMapper for this assignment I explored some of the options and tools available. Seeing some of the flexibility provided i am very intrigued to try some spherical projections and explore the 360 projection features to see what is really possible.
