I have always
had an insatiable desire to create. The main advantage of creating things
virtually is the lack of material cost. Armed with a working computer, no other
physical materials are necessary for me to create. Once I have created an
object virtually, I can take it a step further and bring it to life through
animation. Real life sculptures can only be observed in a static pose. I prefer
to see art in motion. With computer animation, I can create an entire world
with endless buildings to explore given the time. To rival this in real-life I
would need either god-like powers or a bottomless pool of cash.
Why would I want to create, when I
could simply relax and enjoy the creations of others? I do enjoy consuming the
creations of other’s, yet there is a part of me that will never feel complete
unless I’m being productive. The desire to explore and imagine is fundamental
to what has made us human and technologically developed. I create because it
feels good; to do otherwise would drive me to despair.
