ICARUS Fall 2022
This project focuses on a sequence of techniques and visual effects as a platform for cultural manifestos. Beginning with a 3D scan workflow, human faces were transformed into a lamp with a blend of high-fidelity geometry and texture and digital saturation producing a slow reading of messy virtual data.
As a vessel for light, the lamp became a conveyor of common themes in ancient Greek mythology; maturity and wisdom. The narrative structure of the short film uses the distorted lamp geometry and materials to show result of Icarus' fatal flaws.
