About the Matrix series (Did not finish watching yet, Will update later)

I saw this one on the quora two days ago. A programmer has demonstrated that we are living in the matrix, and he said it makes sense: Glyn williams answer to how do we know that we're not living in a computer simulation?

than i was thinking about, one the other hand, if the electronic world perfectly virtualizes everything in the real world, then you certainly can't prove it, or even no doubt at all. But the world of "The Matrix" is different. It is not ideal, not perfect. Not only is there often people who doubt the authenticity of the world, but even bugs. Therefore, the designer constantly awakens humans to participate in the resistance, and then promotes the evolution of AI itself in the war.

From the visual point of view, the director has already used the scene to create a lot of "points".

                            

This is a picture of the mutual interaction between the copied and the Smith in the Matrix, the picture presents a very unnatural green.

                            

In the real world (Zion) is also some buildings, the color is normal and natural.

                            

This is more obvious. This is the high-speed pursuit in second film. Equally strange green

                           

And this is the lens in the real world, the color is normal.

The creators created two different worlds through the visual deception of the viewers. These three works contain the incompleteness and non-absoluteness of the definition of "world". and the most important point is the "world", The "world" that people describe can only be "the world we perceive." No matter how scientifically explained, it is subject to this "perception" limitation.   It is precisely because of this restriction that the discussion of the "world" issue in "The Matrix" will be inconceivable. and let people have to admit its logical possibility and bring a huge space for the world's relevant thinking.


a 3D model concept idea & sktech for AR & VR project

                                  
3D model 2d concept that may be will included to the schedule, this will be a 360c visual  3D model for AR.

A Review of Virtual Art: From Illusion to Immersion and Donald Hoffman TEDtalk

A Review of Virtual Art: From Illusion to Immersion

Representing our perceptions of reality through an aesthetic construct has been, for centuries, the goal of artists. Grau's analysis of early illusory art in the seound chapters, he brings murals as a point of introduction into the reader's perspective,  and one of the main points he makes is that the computer-generated virtual art of the late twentieth and early twenty-first century, as an illusory art, is not revolutionary or new, but fits into a tradition of illusion that dates back as far as 60 BC. When it comes to classical painting, he mentioned some paintings on the walls of the room. Grau thinks how these types of murals constitute the illusion space, because these images are not continuously experienced, it part of "uniformity of space and time". During the Renaissance, Grau noticed the influence of perspective on painting. As a style device in murals, Grau claims that the angle of view is the most effective in eliminating the distance between the observer and the observed person.  In some fine pages Grau goes into considerable detail concerning the construction of panoramas, the controversy surrounding them, and their economic significance.

Grau claims that every instance of hallucination will cause the observer to immerse himself in the space of the image, but his understanding of immersion has been wavering: one thing he claims is that immersion involves improving the emotional sensitivity of the observer.

Donald Hoffman TEDtalk

Hoffman uses the computer desktop icon to make an analogy. For example, the icon is blue, rectangular, and located in the lower right corner of the desktop. This does not mean that the files in the computer are blue, rectangular, or in the lower right corner of the computer. so what we perceive as a computer desktop hides the real world. Reality is more like a 3D desktop, designed to hide the complexity of the real world and guide us through various behaviors. The space and time you perceive are your interface, and the various objects with entities are the icons on the desktop. Evolution gives us an interface that hides facts and guides us to make adaptive behavior. They do not need to reflect the physical world truthfully, but only to meet the basic requirements of living. Because if the real world information experienced by the creature does not help to survive, it will become an additional burden and thus be eliminated in evolution.

Appreciation:Ready Player One ( From the level of games with VR/AR)

Ready Player One is a "game" movie directed by the famous director Steven Spielberg.

                                           
                                           


1.FOR FILM


The success of this film is undeniable. It is enough to prove that the movie market has been opened up a whole new world, At the same time, the audience is also close to the huge game player group. And the emergence of many extra scene has put this movie on the craze.


                                   


2.FOR GAME


However, the egg should be beyond the main storyline of the film, and in today's evaluation it has become the most concerned point of discussion. It can only be said that this is like put the cart before the horse.


there is a strong individual heroism in the movie, the producer Halliday is called God by all game fans. His personal charm convinced the sentient beings. Everyone recited his personal quotations, recalling his life. After the death, the video was organized by the school in the class. and to requires the player to study the producer’s or speculative producer’s personal intent to finish the game is like can't seem to be realized in reality.


The film skipped the supposedly focused discussion of video game culture and group identity, And portraying an imaginary world without group conflicts between the peoples, because everyone here is addicted to the game. in last feiw minutes at film, The badass drove on the street. Everyone was encircled on the street with virtual reality equipment. There was no social order, no balance between the people, and some were just immersive of game.


The ultimate form of the game itself is not virtual reality at all. This is definitely an enhancement, but it is not true for the audience of many other types of games. The way virtual reality is expressed in movies is not representative of the game itself.


Today, when games are gradually linked to art, the game contains more than just RPG clearance or e-sports confrontation or virtual reality.It can become a form of artistic carrier that can attract people to explore self-thinking like The Witness, The Last of Us, To the Moon, Journeyt, etc. And the appearance of this movie seems to set the boundaries of the game. Maybe the game or AR/VR doesn't like everyone fight on the street with the equipment.But perhaps it can be understood that the film needs to create conflicts. and its not "Game means nothing, but only reality matters."


                               


Leaving the concept of the game, and back to the movie itself, Spielberg is a very good director who will catch the hot spot of the times. He knows what the people wants, and he will give them something. He did give the audience an unparalleled viewing experience. This is the quality that a good director needs, this age need his work.
