Making faux Holograms with the Laser Cutter
A real hologram is a three-dimensional image formed by the interference of light waves, creating an illusion of depth. It is created using holography, a technique that records the interference pattern between two or more beams of coherent light. When light is shone onto the hologram, it diffracts the light and recreates the original light field, resulting in a three-dimensional image that can be viewed from different angles.
Holograms have some unique properties. For example, if a hologram is cut in half, each half will still contain the whole image. Even a small fragment of a hologram will still display the entire picture. Additionally, if a hologram is made of a magnifying glass, the holographic version will magnify other objects in the hologram, just like a real magnifying glass

Project 3 Artist Trading Cards
description:
For this project you will be creating 'Artist Trading Cards' also known as ATCs. The creation of ATCs by artist comes from a long history of artists trading small samples of their work with other artist or were sold to make a little extra cash. They were very popular with Impressionistic era artists. The cards are generally 2.5" x 3.5" big and are either unique or are created in small editions.
example links:
whats due:
- 8 different Artist Trading Cards, 2.5" x 3.5" in size at 180dpi.
- Each card shows examples of your ability to manipulate images using Photopea or Photoshop
- Each card should have a total of at least five layers.
Three layers should be generated using ImageFX - link here or Dall-e 2 - link here (Dall-e has a usage limit, ImageFX does not) of landscapes and/or things
One texture layer
One layer of color.
- All your cards files need to be uploaded as flattened 'jpegs' to the Google class assignment album.
What should you do?
This
is an open project. Be creative, express yourself. Find your style,
create something retro-cool, urban chic, surreal abstraction, whatever,
just create 8 images you are proud of.
First due date
Your 8 images uploaded to the class Google Albums. Label your card files with your first and last name and a number.
Example - joevonstengel-1.jpg, joevonstengel-2.jpg. Save as JPEG file format.
Second due date: day of the Final
Layout your artist trading cards as 8 ups. Print your two best cards 16 times each. Cut them out and sign them. Have them ready for the final
