Psyche Spacecraft Reveal
Maia Huddleston
Major: Mass Media
Genre/Medium: Digital illustration, Pixel sort, and Animation
About the work: This piece began as a digital rendering of the Psyche spacecraft. It soon evolved into a digital illustration with a galaxy-inspired background. I wanted the piece to feel interactive, so I applied a random algorithmic pixel sort to the background. This created the waterfall effect around the spacecraft. To finish off the project, I animated the piece to unveil itself from an initial blurred assortment of large pixels.
