Unfound Knowledge


Pure entry. The logo of Spinner was made with Inkscape, but the rest was made inside Blender. If I have time, I’ll fix some things and make some post-processing as well.

I tried to play a bit with the idea of whether mathematics was discovered or invented. In sense, there could be a library full of proofs of yet unknown theorems, and we just need to “find” such proofs.

Trivia:

  • The P=NP question is a fundamental open question in computer science.
  • In German, the verb “spinnen” is a slang for talking non-sense or bullshit. Literary, it means spinning (as in wool).

Surprisingly, despite the volumetrics and the glass, my potato managed to render in 4 minutes using 128 samples, and the image is not noisy as hell!

EDIT: Added some dust, colour correction and increased resolution.
