revision 1

 

For this iteration, I tried to make the progression of my project a bit more clear. I hoped to make each step lead to the next. So the in the background, the basic original pattern is visible. This is meant to show where I began. From here downward, that form becomes a series of 3-dimensional extruded form that establish the same pattern. From this pattern, I extruded particular pieces of the form to show which areas I focused on in my analysis. I wanted to emphasize the distinct geometry that could be created using the 3D form of the pattern I began with. I hoped to show how each step of adding or subtracting pieces was able to create a new geometric space.

I also wanted to highlight the most prominent form, the octagon, by stacking the pieces on top of one another to create that shape using a hierarchical white wireframe rendering. Then to transition into the most prominent idea, I used rotation of wireframe to break the form down into it's simplest elements before building it up into the generalized spherical shape in the top left corner.

As far as general editing of rendering techniques from the last rendition to this one, I chose to focus on more consideration for light and contrast.
