I helped set up a really cool exhibit called "Instabiles" over the weekend in Pittsburgh for my programming professor here at school and it was an awesome experience. Once we finish the video documentation for it I'll post it up so you can learn more about the project, but for now if you're really curious you can read about it here.
Basically it was more fun than I had anticipated and involved projectors shooting shadows of code-generated mobiles out of a window onto an adjacent building in a back alley behind the Benedum Center. Even though there was a ton of setup and a good amount of disapproving eyebrows because I did things wrong, it was a very new and refreshing look at Pittsburgh for me.

In other news, I'm now in full-swing on my Syndicate Uncivilized Trailer Part II. I will (WILL) be dedicating all of this upcoming weekend to retopologizing and rigging Percy, finishing the textures on my updates laboratory scene, and finding (or possibly, horribly) re-modelling the old oak in the first shot. I had it on a flash drive at one point in my life. Why do they even make flash drives. But! You will certainly be seeing some update about it within the near future. Even if that update is just a picture of me sobbing in the corner of Patterson with a tub of cookie dough. There will at least be something. In the meantime, here's a little something to tie you over. It's a shot of the "BEWARE OF DOG" sign that will be seen in the new fantastic laboratory exterior. Right now the scene itself is in need of a LOT of help. Does anyone have any idea why Maya seems to think I have an ambient light in my scene when I have checked the outliner a thousand times and there is literally NO light in the scene? Why is the scene lighting up guys? Why?
