infinite

I really enjoyed making this interactive work, as it is both very pleasing for me to look at and a fun experience to be able to manipulate an imagery that has long since been static, in movies and games. Using your head, you can adjust the point of view in this virtual world, looking around the “corner” and moving side-to-side. One thing I would change if I had the time would be to spread the stars out amongst the space and have a true sense of filled space. Right now, at times, it’s evident that they’re all coming from this once central point, almost creating a tunnel. I tried to add depth by making some thin/small lights with more transparency but it’s not as good. I’m sure I’ll work on it some more this weekend.
