The name of the game is progress.
From the start, man has been expressing
his ideas in images even before the advent of language. Cave paintings,
carved stone, Ink on canvas and cell animation. Now there is 3d solid modeling.
The ability to create not only
images, but entire machines and even worlds. Images need no longer be flat,
2d. With 3d solid modeling, they are not so much "painted' as built. Art
has merged with engineering.
Each step up the ladder sharpens
the focus, yet broadens the capabilities. The aim is the same: To convey
and transmit ideas and information in as clear a manner as possible. Science
Fiction becoming Science Fact.
The transmission of ideas in a
clear form generates understanding and promotes further progress, as one
builds upon the knowledge of others. The wheel need not be reinvented by
each and every person. You can invent rubber tires instead, or a suspension
system. Or an engine.
These pages are an exploration
into some of the capabilities that our most powerful of tools, the computer,
and the most powerful of gifts, our minds, can do together. Come, the future
awaits us..
