Slices is a short animation exploring the relationships of geometry with the dimensional space it can exist in. The project juxtaposes physical simulation manipulated through physically impossible spaces, visually deconstructing 3D computer graphics.

The project was commisioned by SideFX software with an open brief, the main goal to stress test the in-development version of Houdini for Apple Silicon CPUs in a practical scenario from start to finish. 

The piece takes lower dimensional forms, pushing and distorting them through four spatial dimensions, before slicing the result back into three dimensional space. 

Each shot contains different themes, manipulations, and dimensional objects being transitioned through different types of dimensional space, ranging from simple rotations, through to a 3D analogue of slit-scan video, where the one piece of geometry exists at multiple points in time simultaneously, in different areas in the frame.
