process piece:the genesis of my piece. Footage of
cells, pods, parasites and signals are thrown together to see
if any new association may be gleaned. This has since become
one of my favorite techniques for getting out of a creative
slump. (play small) (play large)
george's introduction:the description of the final project
to be played concurrently on a separate monitor. It seemed funny
at the time. My review board was not amused. (play small) (play large)
coffee table: the
first in a series of genetically modified furniture pieces contained
within the cellular house. The furniture was created using a
homemade script that modified the model's topology based on
cellular growth formulas (size, growth rate, and pattern). Several
generations of furniture were created. The most aesthetically
pleasing was chosen, modified again by hand, and rendered. (play small) (play large)
couch:my
favorite furniture design, and my first excuse to use fur-shading
techniques. The couch is a semi-living entity that adapts to
the user's mood and desired position. (play small) (play large)
lamp:script
generated lamp. I let this one get a bit farther into its scripted
growth before rendering it. The result is a less recognizable
form. (play small) (play large)

animation of two housing units coalescing (play small) (play large)
