---------------------------------- - Submission for POV competition - - HifiGenie.jpg - - By Jerome Mathevet - - mathevet@ccalc2.grenet.fr - - - - Month: February - - Theme: Music/Sound - - - ---------------------------------- Hi There ! This picture has a strange story to it. I decided to participate the competition at the beginning of the month but I couldn't really work at the University, my personal computer not being available. So, I had to wait the holidays (around the 15th of february) to start the competition. Then, I decided to use primitives as much as possible to render debug-images at a reasonable pace. And then, the dead-line and the picture still unfinished ! My last resort was to render it on a RS6000 at the university, perhaps correcting some camera placement. And, one thing you must look at is: I couldn't see the final image before sending it (at least not in colour) ! Anyway, I hope it's not too bad ... Hard facts about this pic: - It was done on an Acorn A5000 machine. Not the fastest FPU around but I adore the look-and-feel. - Everything was done by hand, no modeller being available on my machine... - Most of the objects have rounded edges to soften the look. - The cassette was done a month ago, but It took me 3 days to make, so, it doesn't really count (IMHO).
