+Im in the middle of a creative crisis. I've developed a quite interesting, aesthetical and complicated technic procedure to convert images into a 3d particle universe, which as i tested with the projector looks quite well. But now, im facing a more deep issue. The message isn't as clear and hasn't evolved as the technical procedure did. Prof. Brinkmann suggest me to drink green tea, and keep on questioning myself.

	After dealing with a monumental creative crisis and trying during hours to come up with something that might actually work as I had intended in mind, I opened After effects, and I felt like a clueless man in front of a white sheet of paper, I mean, I have been in touch with the software for years, and I knew I wanted to transform actual images into something more than the downloaded image, but at that point I didn’t know where to begin.

But how could I make something aesthetically nice, transforming the image with some kind of procedure, but still getting to know the viewer what I’m doing, and which is the original image? Or at least what does the original image represents?
			I had to think quite more. I mean, the easiest way was to just project an image, on the spinning globe, but that was, I felt, a little mediocre for the idea I conceived with videocomposition and making it visually attractive for me. I think I’ve always pushed myself to my own limits. Then I was again surfing the net, finding about code (I haven’t touched code since high school). But then I though it was a little too much, so I went basics again.

			[url=https://postimg.cc/image/vu61apxh3/][img]https://s15.postimg.cc/t02vx9vaz/image.png[/img][/url]

			I started with a grid of particles moving as a wave, linked to an image which gave me an xyz dispersion as the hexadecimal pixels of the image were read one by one. That looked nice, but again the same problem, the intension was going to be so disperse, if I were to work with logos, the animation would be steady as the colors are flat, and still the image or the intension would be literally lost in translation during the process, ending up in a very interesting aesthetic but meaningless-to-the-audience wave of particles.
			Then I was in the urge to think how to be aesthetic without distorting so much the image so it could still be readable to the audience while projected on an irregular spinning surface as this:

			[url=https://postimg.cc/image/5ymari8hz/][img]https://s15.postimg.cc/qviiw66iz/image.png[/img][/url]

			After several attempts, I was very frustrated, so I went out for a bike ride. One thought led to another, suddenly I was remembering Plato and his scheme of the universe, worlds within worlds… Then I decided I wanted to use the mapping to project different things into the globe, creating different worlds as different things could be projected in the spinning surface.
			The next morning I woke up with the intention of at least discovering what or how I was going to distort the images, keeping them readable to the audience, but still making them look aesthetical as I wanted. So again I was thinking of universes… and I came up with the idea to create a 3D Particle Universe of the images, rendering them in 3D sphere particles.

			I started working again, creating the model of the particle I was to use, rendering and importing it, into
			After Effects.
			[url=https://postimg.cc/image/p3pk1ai13/][img]https://s15.postimg.cc/836nsm4zv/image.png[/img][/url]

			Then about 5 hours of work, things finally started to look the way I wanted, with the aesthetics I wanted, but also easy to read and identify to the audience.
			For example, here is Ronald McDonald in my 3d Particle Universe:

			Source File

			[url=https://postimg.cc/image/6bdoxoyhj/][img]https://s15.postimg.cc/k521mqr2z/image.png[/img][/url]
			Final Result

			Also I did another experiment with Uncle Sam cartel from WWII, the results were also very impressive and nice from my point of view.

			Now as a conclusion, I know how to develop a distortion method which adapt the aesthetics I want. The concept has variated through the process, when I started I wanted to show emotions, but now I think I find more interesting showing the world as a representation of iconic images, lastly the world as we know it is a representation and has developed a collective database of images and icons which given a moral value have defined us as a society.
