Information Overload
I spent the day in a workshop on 3-D Modeling. I now know how to make a pendentive and a lunette.
The class is taught by a really great instructor, Patrick Slater, who is an architect by profession. The design is done in 3D Studio Max, which I found to be a lot more intuitive than Maya (the software we used in Gateway Lab). The focus so far has been on architecture, and we haven't talked much about virtual worlds (which is what I'm most interested in) but the techniques are all the same. And right now, we are just learning the techniques.
There are only four of us in the class, and we are all on the same level. So, that's great. But this stuff is really hard. I am exhausted. But, I'm coming back for more tomorrow.

is he over 70? :)
Actually, he is in his early 30s. And I was paying attention all day long. So Phil's and Ling's accusations are obviously totally bogus.
And I always figured you'd only have to make a pendentive if you wanted to summon Satan at midnight to make a deal. I just keep on learning something every day....
