From pixels and rooms to gaming spaces and dioramas, this book exposes approaches to rendering that are equal parts instructive and critical. In the pursuit of the strange and the uncanny, digital media and software aren't taken for granted, nor are they always used as intended. This journey is forward-looking about the emerging role of gaming engines, volumetric raytracing, and procedural shaders, but also looks back and samples from some '80s and '90s classics including MacPaint, DOOM, \u003ci\u003ethe Star Trek \u003c\/i\u003eHolodeck and the film \u003ci\u003ePredator.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Carl Lostritto\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1951541553\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781951541552\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Applied Research \u0026amp; Design\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/04\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.90w x 1.00d","brand":"Carl Lostritto","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44076964151551,"sku":"9781951541552","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8b6e367d-b906-451b-85b6-7639521b1676.jpg?v=1685467664","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/impossible-and-hyper-real-elements-of-carl-lostritto-9781951541552","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
