Soviet nuclear detonator console used in the fifties and sixties.

A quick render after some messing about in MAXON's Cinema 4D with Sub Polygon Displacement. I decided to dive into this extremely fun, but complex program this week for an hour or so...

 

TUTORIAL CAN BE FOUND HERE AT GREYSCALE GORILLA

 

Another quick shout to Andy Allen for bringing C4D to my attention. Cheers dude.

The Lena delta is one of the largest still pristine river deltas in the world. Its many naturally meandering arms form a magnificent tree-like shape. And ice wedges in the fine sediments of the treeless tundra form regular polygons with small ponds. The whole of the Lena Delta area has been nominated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. On August 12, 1996, the Russian Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) significantly expanded the Lena Delta state nature reserve. At 14,330 square kilometres, the Lena Delta reserve ("Zapovednik") was already one of the largest and most important nature reserves in the Arctic. With its new size of 61,320 square kilometres, the expanded Lena Delta Reserve is now the largest protected area in Russia and one of the largest on earth. It is, however, only a small part of Sakha’s “Gift to the Earth”. Sakha, a republic approximately the size of Western Europe, decided in 1994 to designate at least 20% of its territory as a nature reserve.

Spearheads Tessellation

back

Another older concept, although this one required a bit of new design work to finalize. Everything has to be precreased, which is really time-consuming, but the result is really interesting on both sides. I thought that the diagonal molecules look a bit like spearheads, hence the name.

Prudhoe Bay Oil Field is a large oil field on Alaska's North Slope. It is the largest oil field in both the United States and in North America, covering 86,418 ha and originally containing approximately 25 billion barrels (4.0-109 m3) of oil. The amount of recoverable oil in the field is more than double that of the next largest field in the United States, the East Texas oil field. The oil itself lies in porous rock formations anywhere from 1,700 to 7,000 m below the surface. It rises to the wellhead under its own geologic pressure, so no pumping is required. The mixture of oil, gas and water coming to the surface gets separated in special gathering centers. All of the water and some of the gas is re-injected back into the ground to enhance the formation pressure. A fraction of the natural gas is used to heat all the buildings in Prudhoe Bay. The rest, an enormous amount, must simply be burned off. On March 2, 2006, a a large oil spill was discovered in western Prudhoe Bay. Up to 1,010,000 liter were spilled, making it the largest oil spill on Alaska's north slope to date. The spill was attributed to a pipeline rupture. Other environmental impacts of this huge oil field include fragmentation and disruption of America's formerly largest tundra wilderness area.

Another small thingie I've discovered. Sadly, it doesn't seem to be working in real life.

So, I always wanted to try this, but it seemed really time consuming, and it was, but I'm happy with the result :D

Polygonia c-album

Einer meiner LIeblingsplätze im Saarland: Die Bergehalde Duhamel bei Ensdorf. Die begehbare Stahlskulptur, das Saar Polygon, sieht aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven immer anders aus.

 

One of my favorite spots in the Saar Region is the colemine mound near Saarlouis. The structure on top looks different from any angle.

This is an inverted view looking up the wall to the ceiling of the Harpa Concert Hall in Reykjavik, Iceland. The walls have this 3D structure of facets leading up to the ceiling which again has segmented mirrors. I've taken this shot to create an artificial horizon at the point where they meet. The golden panel could almost be the sun in an abstract landscape shot. The architects and designers were Henning Larsen Architects and Olafur Eliasson. The structures are to represent the columns of basalt rock that are found in Iceland.
