HW 2: Walking Small.

Having a smaller perspective on the room gave me the insight that not everything is as aligned as I thought. The objects that I thought were not very detailed showed more detail as I changed size. During Thursday's class, I had no idea that I had the ability to import textures from the stores. As I assumed that textures would have to be made through blender, I stuck with single colored objects with only one material. The one texture I found online and added to my scene was the brick texture. When I shrank down, I was surprised to find that it had a lot more detail than I thought. As I became smaller, the texture showed more intricate details as well as differing colors. On the other side of the spectrum, the low poly objects I created through blender looked more low resolution as ever. This perspective gave me insight on how important textures are to a scene. In addition, the alignment of many of my object were not as precise as what I had originally thought. The chairs that I created were floating above the floor and the keyboard that I did not render all the sides of each key like it showed on blender. Additionally, the headphones I created were also missing surfaces.

The experience of seeing my office in a way that I can't experience in the real world, gave me the perspective that only with a keen sense of vision would see. In this view, I am able to be more precise in the way I create the objects in the scene as well as their placement. The only issue that I had was moving throughout the scene in a more reasonable interval. When I would move through the scene using the arrow keys, the amount of space that I would move would be equivalent to that as if I were taking a human sized step. It cause some annoyance as I would have to move more carefully as I inspected the scene. Shrinking down to a smaller size would be most useful in a scientific research setting. I am not implying that creating an office space would be used in a scientific research setting but, in a natural setting such as that of a tornado. The small features of this natural phenomenon would be a useful tool for discovery. Tiny changes in a pattern could indicate a new finding and patterns that would not be obvious to the naked eye.
