During Week 5, my friend Asher Blackburn made a looking outwards post that I found particularly eye catching since it pertained to one of my favorite music artist’s album art – Flume.
In his post, he talks about Jonathan Zawada and his mathematically computed flowers that are so realistic it was as if they were photoshopped pictures of flowers. Asher, comments on how bold and righteous it is of Zawada to take the harder route of utilizing 3D animations algorithms rather than simply painting the flowers and I would definitely agree. When taking a closer look into the animated flowers, it is truly astounding the realism and detail that the algorithms were able to generate.
