Smurf Sighting – Nate Hallinan


http://natehallinan.com:

The Smurf is actually the result of a symbiotic relationship between two organisms. We believe that Smurfs put their ‘embryos’ in the button of a developing mushroom. From a distance, Smurfs seem like they are wearing a hat and pants but as you can see this is a fallacy. The fungus provides camouflage and protective epidermal layers for the creature, while the creature provides nutrients and mobility for the spreading of spores.

Smurfs are believed to be a hunter gatherer society. As you can see, this little guy is returning from a successful venture. It is generally difficult to spot a Smurf; they are very apprehensive and cunning. Sadly though, it is rumored that they are hunted for their medicinal properties. It’s hard to determine but it is thought that there are not many colonies of Smurf left.

Polynomial Texture Mapping (PTM)

Polynomial Texture Mapping (PTM) is a technique that enables the production of detailed surface models of particular artefacts from a series of digital photographs (Malzbender et al 2001; Mudge et al 2005). This technique is achieved by taking multiple photographs of an object from a fixed location, with a controlled light source moved between each exposure, or by deriving the light source's location and orientation from highlights appearing on a reference object. The resulting series of images is used to produce a single PTM file via the HP Labs PTM fitter software. The PTM viewer enables a virtual light source to be moved across the virtual scene. The viewer can also vary lighting intensity, add additional virtual lights, derive surface models and to carry out image processing tasks such as edge detection.

PhilcoPC

Radical reinvention of the personal computer:

PhilcoPC
SchultzeWORKS.com:
Thank you to everyone who has called or written to inquire where they could buy the Philco PC. However, these images are 3D renderings of a design concept which does not yet exist in the real world. We are currently meeting with PC manufacturers and hope that will change in the near future. In the meantime, thanks for the interest, and it’s very cool that you thought the images were real.
