Motion Experiment 8 Alt - Fantasy Fractal Particle Machine
BackLots more to read below! Strexx Motion Lab wants to correct a terrible problem with modern design and construction. The problem with most construction today is the lack of modulation with the particles used in the construction. Since construction applies to anything, we can see just how large the the applicable context for Strexx Motion Lab theories is. Imagine each shape having the same origin shape — each new shape is a modulation of one single shape. A circle is a triangle that has modulated and a square is a hexagon, that has undergone modulation. In this video, we have at first a collection of random shapes, but these shapes have experienced severe amounts of modulation. Their starting shape? A car, more specifically, components of a Lamborghini LP640. At this point it is easy not to see how the transformation was made, but everything that you're seeing is from different design components of a Lamborghini LP640. It does seem pointless to have that as a source since you cannot tell that of all things a Lamborghini was the source. But a Lamborghini or any car is just a collection of shapes — which can all be modulated. It's interesting to take a picture of a car — or any vehicle — and not a movie. Looking at a still image of what was once a car and not even seeing the possibility of motion is almost insulting to the car and every engineer that worked on the car beyond exterior aesthetic. So injecting motion into an image of a car — especially one that is made with such power and passion — is an honor. Every item exists with other items. This of course causes interaction between those items and particles. We do not directly control the movement of the particles, as that does not produce any interesting results. Instead, Strexx Motion Lab provides different situations, environments, and parameters for the particles and components in the video to interact with. Controlling the environment is the best way to produce dynamic results that are unpredictable and the most spectacular. The resulting inevitable interactions can have neutral reactions, positive and constructive reactions , or negative and destructive reactions. The reactions all produce visual and sonic responses, but the different types of response will tell the future of the video components and particles. It is very important to realize that these are all growing structures that have many evolutions, and that these videos are only a portion of the life of these structures. The formations that are possible with any shape through modulation architecture are incredible. These formations come together to form vastly complex systems of modulation architecture that have similarities in design to the Mandelbrot fractal set. Fractal Architecture and molecule modulation — through both visual and sonic and sonic ranges is the largest portion of the Strexx Motion Lab. Think of these structures as buildings, as structures that can exist in a cityscape. Imagine a city filled completely with moving fractal structures as buildings, with the plethora in range that fractal structures can have, every city and every building inside of a city can be replaced with a fractal system. The cities don't have to be replaced, instead there could be alternate fractal versions of every city: Fractal London, Fractal Paris, Fractal Rome, Fractal New York, Fractal Chicago, Fractal Los Angeles, Fractal Tokyo, Fractal Monaco, Fractal Istanbul, Fractal Budapest, Fractal Dubrovnik, or Fractal Valletta. Architecture needs to incorporate more animation theory into structure design. The limits and possibilities that animators experience are almost not worth mention, compared to the limits that architects face. Unfortunately, those limits have translated into structural åådesign and engineering. The music in the video also incorporates the use of alternative mechanical structure design, except this time in a sonic manner. The music was constructed with the used of items that were purchased from Lowe's (home improvement store), and found around my house (I guess that makes this true house music). This again shows the strength that is seen when materials are used for alternative purposes that have no relationship with their intended purpose. Alternative construction and design is needed in every field and every area, it is the best form of breakthrough. That is the goal of the Strexx Motion Lab Project, to promote alternative and innovative uses in every medium of any object to form brilliant and vast structures.
