PIXAR – oh the horrors of it! [It just goes to show what you discover when you trust your responses and higher self instincts!] I have noticed that every time I watch anything made by PIXAR that is total animation such as Toy Story, I begin to feel very strange. There is a sort of discomfort that starts building up and a feeling of being trapped and I desperately need to get away from it. I have found that it is related to the colour palette that the films are presented in. The colours seem unnatural and strange to me – like a corrupted version of the true colour spectrum. There doesn’t seem to be any subtlety in these colours or as they say ‘no gray areas’. I saw a brief preview at the beginning of a DVD last night and it made me feel physically sick and queasy as my heart started to pound. Quote: Light is vibration. The entire electromagnetic wave spectrum of visible light produces different colors. Colors are simply waves vibrating at different frequencies. On one end of the spectrum you have red, on the other end you have violet. Red has the longest wavelength and the lowest frequency, violet has the shortest wavelength and the highest frequency....endquote And one perspective of colour.. Quote: The frequency that is the basis of each density is what may be called a true color. This term is impossible to define given your system of sensibilities and scientific measurements,for color has vibratory characteristics both in space/time and in time/space. The true color is then overlaid and tinged by the rainbow of the various vibratory levels within that density and the attraction vibrations of the next true color density...endquote So.... I was wondering if the colours at PIXAR have been sort of tuned for ulterior motives (like the musical frequency scale was) ? This high strangeness prompted me to do some research on PIXAR and I came across this: PIXAR use a particular innovative technology for the graphics. Quote: Recent developments seem to indicate that some of the renderers that use sub-pixel displacement move towards supporting higher level geometry too. As the vendors of these renderers are likely to keep using the term sub-pixel displacement, this will probably lead to more obfuscation of what displacement mapping really stands for, in 3D computer graphics.... endquote. [I don’t fully understand computer-speak but...I found it interesting that a ‘higher level geometry’ is mentioned]. This terminology is also interesting in the next quote about ‘divide and conquer’ literature: Quote: A popular theme in the VSD literature is divide and conquer. The Warnock algorithm pioneered dividing the screen. Beam tracing is a ray-tracing approach which divides the visible volumes into beams....endquote. Who Engineered it? The brains behind the technology is a Loren Carpenter - Quote: He is co-founder and chief scientist of Pixar Animation Studios. He is the co-inventor of the Reyes rendering algorithm and is one of the authors of the PhotoRealistic RenderMan software which implements Reyes and renders all of Pixars movies. Following Disneys acquisition of Pixar, Carpenter became a Senior Research Scientist at Disney Research.[2] He retired in early 2014. Carpenter is one of the key figures in the development of both computer animation and Pixar, and his role in naming Pixar (as cool as it is) would rank the least of his contributions to the company. Carpenter had started experimenting with computer animation in the late-1970s when he was an engineer at Boeing....endquote The video made by him and his wife (posted below) is very interesting and looks clearly like Social Engineering at work: Note the comments in the video relate to memes such as: • New kind of democracy – • global society • ‘citizens’ forming networks One speaker in the video says government should be the facilitator to not control or regulate ...hmmm....it set alarm bells ringing with me a sort of new age socialism to lure the masses into thinking a paradigm shift had occurred. I also found an interesting comment on a PIXAR link as follows.... Quote: Following the summer 2013 release of Monsters University, 22 year old Joe Negroni developed a theory that all of the Pixar movies exist in the same universe. The timeline tracks how animals acquired the ability to talk and their rise in intellect, the downfall of humans on Earth, the growth of machines, and the creation of a super species (the monsters from Monsters, Inc.). Its pretty weird and trippy theory, but, surprisingly, it makes perfect sense....endquote Starting to make ‘perfect sense’? I don’t watch them anyway because of my severe physical reaction but others might want to re-consider so called ‘family viewing’ (5.37mins vid
