Rainbow Dimensions 1
Description: Ok. As you all can see by now I've grown quite fond of this particular style of imagery I cooked up.

"Fond? Why don't you get honest with yourself? YOU'RE ADDICTED!"

Oh no. Not you again. Didn't I tell you I'd let you out only if you behave yourself?

"I should let you sugarcoat the truth to those people? PLEASE!"

Oh do be quiet, won't you!?

"This is so typical. I'm the force that drives you and you take all the credit. If it wasn't for me you'd still be hiding in a beer bottle afraid of your own shadow."

Excuse me folks.

"HEY! LET GO OF ME!!! NO! NOT THE CLOSET AGAIN! PLEASE! I'LL BE QUITE! I PROMISE!"



Sorry you good folks had to witness that. My ego can be such a pest sometimes. Now where was I? Ah yes. I'm so pleased with the results of my recent reflections experiment that I just can't leave it alone, though, in order to prevent monotony, I've made some significant changes. First, I've changed it's name. I've also designed a new and more complex mirror box, doubled the light sources and narrowed them to half the original diameter. The ray depth on this one is 8 and yields a complex pattern of faceting that I find quite satisfying but it may be too confusing in an animation I'm planning for it. I'll most likely reduce the RD to 4 and animate the mirror box and light sources. I'm expecting the resulting animation to be quite spectacular.

BTW, my notebook crashed last night while I was sleeping so I lost some time on the first animation. 350 frames have been rendered so far, almost 40% of total.

I think by adding more stuff to it you start to loose details in the patterns created by reflections. I think this is about as complex as it should get anymore and it be a mess.

You're right. This is why I'll be rendering the amination at RD 4. I just rendered a 1280x960 image with that setting I can use as wallpaper and it looks a lot less 'congested'. I'll post it here but I'll likely have to downsize it to reduce the file size. After that I'll be taking a break to work on the animations.

Kaleidoscopica Ultimate still has the edge I think, there was a hint of white in that here and there that really brought out the intesity of the colours somehow. And also, I agree with Gat's observation in that it is at risk of becomeing too complex and loosing some of it's appeal.

Thanks David. I realize it can be too complex. I'm just about ready to start setting up a 30 second animation with this configuration at RD 4. I was doing it yesterday but somehow things got messed up so I'll go at it again this weekend. I can tell you that what I saw as I sampled the sequence of movements I chose was absolutely incredible. Bright colors blending and morphing into pastels. It's going to be absolutely beautiful. I really can't wait to get it finished. If only I had a good render network so I could get it rendered in a day......oh well. It's going to be well worth the wait though. :-)
