Hoping your holidays are filled with peace, joy, comfort and love.
Did you know that the first 9 notes of Beethoven’s beautiful Bagatelle No. 25 in A minor (WoO 59 and Bia 515) for solo piano, commonly known as “Für Elise“, were actually copyrighted in November, 2003? A Dutch trademark agency named ShieldMark won the exclusive rights to the first nine notes claiming it was a test case to determine “whether it was possible to register sounds as trademarks. The judgment in the Für Elise case of 27 November 2003 is clear on the subject and now constitutes applicable law in the entire European Union.”
Pretty weird, huh? If you’re interested you can read more about it here: http://www.furelise.com/.
Hope you enjoy the dancing Julia Set Mandelbulb3D fractal.
Well, here is my third animation based on the “Amazing Surface” formula.
“A Tonal Triptych” expands on the landscape introduced in my original Surface video and presents one video with three very distinct audio experiences. The first dark, pad-heavy audio segment was created by me using FL Studio. The following segments highlight pieces by Kevin MacLeod (“Industrial Revolution” and “Vanes“). As in previous videos, all sound effects were provided by the graciousness of my kitchen utensils.
Hope you enjoy it.
Here’s my next “Amazing Surface” animation. It took a long, long, long time to render, but I won’t bore you with the details. Suffice it to say that I am truly tired of (working on) this video.
Hope you enjoy it.
So here’s my first “Amazing Surface” video. I really enjoy this Mandelbulb3D formula, for obvious reasons – there are just so many weird shapes that magically appear out of nowhere.
For those that care, total rendering time was roughly three weeks 24/7 rendered at 1920×1080 with 2×2 anti-aliasing. Sound effects once again are courtesy of my kitchen utensils and silverware.
