Vienna University of Technology Video

This is a realtime global illumination rendering system I'm developing for my master thesis at the Vienna University of Technology. With the current system I get 60fps with 3 light bounces at a resolution of 1024x768 pixels. The video was captured on an Intel i7 CPU system with 6GB RAM and two NVIDIA GTX295 in SLI mode.

4.03 min. | 4.2 user rating		 www.castyourart.com (english version) www.castyourart.com (german version) When one asks the young Viennese artist, Leo Peschta, for influences on his artistic work from his childhood, he mentions Karaktakus Pott. Innovation, fascination with technology, the defunct compilation of components originally designed to function, the readiness to fail, joy in the undefined—these elements connect the artist with the character from Flemings novel. The opposition between the perception and the production of space, the design of machine interfaces between media, in addition, the bulkiness and the unique aesthetic of machines and machine parts, inform the artistic agenda which defines his work. Peschta cites George Rickey and Theo Jansen, as the sources of his further influence by kinetic art.
