Experiment Plan –<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- As I’ve briefly explained I am going to create 4 separate art pieces each using the same reference photo of a plain 3D white cube. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- The reason for choosing this object is that it allows me to showcase numerous important features such as dimensions, shadow, and depth. This will help me to understand how different materials represent an object and how they translate these features digitally.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

Digitising Texture –<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- What changed once they were digitized?\n
- \n
- All of the changes observed were seen in every material.These changes where;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Their depth all flattened<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- There was more of a reliance on light & shadow over material interaction<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- However, although these changes were present in each element some textures read better than others.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Oil pastel and charcoal seemed to fare best when digitized as they predominantly rely on imitating light & dark and imitate depth instead of creating it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Yarn and collage however, rely on creating depth through layering and utilising 3D so when this is stripped away it loses its character.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Texture \u2192 Interaction Design<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- I concluded in my research that texture is felt in 3 predominant way: controller vibration, texture-specific sound design, and visual feedback\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
