For awhile, I've seen these "Tiny World" photos. posted one here yesterday and I, again, contemplated how they might be created. Interest piqued, I set off to create one.
It Is a Small World, After All!
I like figuring puzzles like this out. Logic games and reasoning puzzles have always fascinated me. In the end, this wasn't too terribly difficult. The biggest hitch I ran into was figuring out how Photoshop changes an image into polar coordinates.
Once I had that figured out, of course, I just had to take it a step further...
The World Is Your Donut!
The donut world is my favorite of the two, and presents some interesting possibilities for future Photoshop micromundos. This is something I'll definitely play with in the future, though I still prefer non-Photoshopped images.
