I have a (bad) 3D scan of my head

At McCann Enterprise, during lockdown a lot of people (including me) joined the agency. As a way to introduce ourselves to everyone, we were encouraged to share an image of ourselves or something we’d created and speak about it in our weekly agency-wide meeting.

I had been interested in attempting to 3D scan something with my phone for a while and took this as an opportunity to try it out. My wife kindly did the actual scan. Once I had the model, I opened it in Blender and messed with the materials until I had something that looked cool. I rendered it at print res and called it a day.

What can you even do with a 3D scan of your own head?

I suppose I could have printed it, but what’s weird.

Instead, I decided it should be an asteroid hurtling through space towards earth. I’m not sure why.

I showed a friend who said, ”It’s like, your thoughts have big impact, y’know?”

Anyway, enjoy this interactive but inevitable experience.

Use your mouse or drag around to orbit the camera. Use the left and right arrows or two fingers to roll the camera.

I made this by relentlessly prompting Cursor with Claude 3.7 Sonnet. The narrative is loaded in from a text file, and the head and 3D text are loaded in as.OBJ files.
