Keywords:

Artist Statement:

Scientific visualization techniques are mostly used to depict the information from the simulation data. This video demonstrates that visualization can also be used to generate esoteric visual effects from a 2D seismic wave field derived from simulation data. All the visualization results were created using AVS/Express with various techniques such as value-to-color mapping, contour, isoline, surface plot, and lighting. The final images were composed with Jaleo video editing software.
