Yingying Yan – Looking Outwards 09

This week I looked over Romi Jin’s looking outwards 5. She is my mentor from architecture, so I thought I could learn from her. Her looking outwards was about occluder simplification. The reason why she chose this is probably that the occluder simplification used bunny as an example, and she loves bunny.

Shown by the picture above, the bunny changed from a normal bunny to a distorted one. This is because the algorithm takes in very few inputs and simplifies the geometry in an abstract way. As Romi mentioned, this can be very useful when applying to larger and more complex shapes. This algorithm produced a unique and interesting graphic compare to the original. Yet, I think it needs to be developed more because it could be more visually appealing.
