Motivation
Over the years, I felt a powerful urge to express myself. I felt that words often evaded what I truly wanted to convey. So I started learning computer graphics through Three.js, and this is my first visual piece.
The texts in the scene are some words that have influenced me significantly in 2024. These quotes by famous people have lingered in my mind, floating in my head and continuously unlocking new perspectives, as I make my way through the world.
Words in the Scene
"오직 한없이 가지고 싶은 것은 높은 문화의 힘이다. 문화의 힘은 우리 자신을 행복하게 하고, 나아가서 남에게 행복을 주기 때문이다."

— 김구 (Kim Gu), 나의 소원 (My Wish)
"When something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favor."
— Elon Musk
"The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away."

Fun Facts
- The 3D scan of myself was created using Creality's "Otter" 3D Scanner, which uses infrared light and 4 different cameras to capture depth.
- Hair is difficult to scan because it is thin and scatters light. I applied some lotion on my hair to make it "matte".
- I scanned it myself, so the back of my head is missing. It took several takes.
-
Then, I became curious how my cat would look like. (It's hard for a moving object...)
-
She didn't seem happy being scanned. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
