I didn't yet elaborate the theory behynd it, and don't even know if I ever will, or can. But so I could see more clear the vision I had, I went to computer and started to make it. But as a beauty lover like I am, I didn't only wanted to represent these thoughts but also make a nice picture of it, so PROGRAMS USED *Imagine3D 4 for PC *Photogenics 5(Demo) for PC *PaintShopPro (only for the blinds effect) AUTHOR Nuno Vasco Saltão da Costa http://savoc.tripod.com NOTES: At first glance it can seems that this work was all made on PC (well, it was...), but, and there's always a but... the reason they were made with are: 1st- Imagine3D is a program that I use since it appeared on AmigaFormat, since then I've been working with it, and with such a big object, with so many polygons (495Kb)so many light calculations,(the transparent part of the object is made of Diamond, I had to be crazy to render it on Amiga. I even had to turn the soft shadows of because it took 8 hours to render 25%! 2nd- Photogenics, another program that I used early on, and this new version had a very cool feauture that the others didn't, or at least I never played with it, Flip. I'm hoping to do the full upgra de path as a owner of Photogenics 4. 3rd- PaintShop Pro because it has the blinds tool and only for that, I've could have done it with alpha, or others Amiga programs had it, but I never found it. 4th- My Amiga is Oficially dead. :( DISTRIBUTION Please, if any of you just by seein' this very same image, discovers the unifyin' Theory, The Holly Grail of Physics, please mention my name!
