How the Moiré Effect Could CHANGE Minecraft

I can't wait until mojang gets sued for people making movies in minecraft

okay let's take this to the most logical extreme.... how many of those huge maps next to each other would you need to create a 90 minute scene? could you rig a minecart to move slowly enough and at a consistent enough Pace to make the movie comprehensible? and finally could you rig note blocks to mimic speech well enough and close enough to the player that a full movie could be experienced inside of Minecraft?

Ah, yes. This is exactly what animators were looking for: A more difficult way to create animations.

Its crazy what The Minecraft Community are capable of doing with this block game we all love to play as I doubt Mojang thought about something like this when maps were added

A great example of the moiré effect is actually in Minecraft itself. With large enough wheat fields you can see this in action. I didn't realize the moiré effect could be used to this extent though! This brings me to an idea I've had for a bit... Sound engineers! How plausible is it to replicate real-life voices (human, instrument, in-general soundtrack) from Minecraft noteblocks? I know that I'm not qualified, but if you are, you can put your name among this visual milestone of Minecraft history. Imagine if these animations had noteblock audio with them!

Actual pronunciation of moiré: "Mwa-ray" This guy: "Myur-ri"

Pretty insane. I swear Benitotortellini was trying to make a much smaller scale but kinda same idea of this on 2b2t with machine switching pixels. Def not the same as this magic but was cool concept. Ggs

I could easily see pseudo-holographic effects being developed for this if they figure out how to get the transparency just right in an environment.

I first discovered the Moiré effect in Minecraft when bricks were first added. Because of the repetitive pattern that bricks have and a large enough area of bricks it would cause this effect when you fly up.

Cant wait for the players on 2b2t to make the most degenerate gifs in existence

Curious. I noticed just a few weeks ago that white lines between blocks in a glass ceiling were moving to the right. I chalked it up to a visual glitch. I wonder if it was related to this principle.

I have only one thing on my mind: "Tylko jedno w głowie mam, koksu 5 gram. Odlecieć sam, w krainę zapomnienia."

That transition to the ad read was seamless, i thought you were gonna go on a tangent on how that was the first instance of the moire effect in video games and such

0:30 oh, you can do this with anything that does nearest-neighbor image scaling (as opposed to linear or cubic, or other forms of scaling), by baking the frames of animation into the image, by slicing each one up into single-pixel-wide strips and interlacing them. This concept was useful to me in generating good-looking subpixel movement with a low-resolution game I made, by downsizing a 18x18 sprite to 6x6 and having 3 baked-in frames of animation (in each dimension, so really 9 frames) dependent on the subpixel of the sprite (the game engine did the nearest-neighbor scaling magic for me) If your game uses nearest-neighbor, and minecraft most certainly does (like damn have you seen how crisp blocks are? you don't get that with linear scaling. Scaling works the same upwards as it does downwards, nearest-neighbor gives you crisp images at scale-ups, and gives crisp image-slicing at scale-downs as seen throughout the video to produce stunning moving images)

That transition into a sponsor was the cleanest I've ever seen

Wow what a great way to make Minecraft more fun! Now we just need the anarchy servers to update to 1.18/1.19 so there isn’t the map limit ;)

Cant wait for the entire shrek movie done on minecraft maps 🔥💯

The Moire effect appeared in the first ever alpha Minecraft version. Just fall down the map and see the Moire effect in cobblestones (they might eventually stretch and grow so much that it will appear as 1 large cobblestone)

I've always seen and known about this effect in Minecraft but I NEVER expected people to make such clever use of it!

Great video! My only complaint is that I had to turn my audio off to watch it! I'm genuinely confused as to how you arrived at that pronunciation.
