  • In this interdisciplinary mini-project, you will explore the intersection of 3D design, visual illusion, augmented reality, and animation by creating a perceptual-shift sculpture inspired by Michael Murphy’s Perceptual Shift.

    It connects spatial reasoning, storytelling, and maker tools into one creative, hands-on showcase.

    • Working with Blender, you can design a multi-layered version of the BITS logo—where separate icons (representing spaces like VR, Podcasting, 3D Printing, etc.) align into a coherent image when viewed from one precise angle. The project combines spatial planning, illusion techniques, and digital sculpting.

      Once the digital model is completed, you can:

      • 3D print the layered elements using filament-based printers

      • Create a physical display

      • Export the design for web-based Augmented Reality (AR) and host it online, accessible via QR code

      • Animate the sculpture using a stop-motion video (capturing assembly and viewpoint shift)

    • Learning Outcomes:

      • Apply 3D modeling techniques in Blender, including extrusion, layering, and object alignment

      • Understand and implement the concept of perceptual shift / anamorphic illusion

      • Prepare a digital model for 3D printing

      • Publish an interactive WebAR experience viewable on mobile devices

      • Plan, shoot, and edit a basic stop-motion animation sequence

      • Communicate a technical-creative process through multimedia formats

    • Final Deliverables:

      • Blender file (.blend) and printable STL models

      • Assembled 3D-printed sculpture

      • QR-enabled AR experience using model-viewer and hosted files

      • 20 second stop-motion video showing the illusion in action
