is this correct?
>>7855844It’s wrong, but I fixed it for you.A donut shaped reflection won’t absorb the light from the candle.
>>7855844how about now
is this loss?
is this correct (ligh source with very large distance
>>7855844It's very much wrong.
>>7856240Oh yeah because it's concave on that side, but isnt it too close to be flipped?
>>7856260No. And it'd be VERY thin.
>>7856267>ThinWhy
>>7856454wheres the sphere?
This thread makes me think of a cigarette
>>7856454Could you explain the logic of why a concave surface flips an image upside down? I forget, also how does that translate to a torus?
>>7856454No the one who drew it. This is my best guess. The concave becomes upside down because the surface of the bottom points to the sky above the head. The top of the mirror points down, looking at the top of his head as if it is birds eye view.That being said, I believe the donut might be slightly wrong.
>>7856929I had looked this up and your first guess was close to what mine was. I ended up learning so much about mirrors and optics that now I feel mind fucked. Has to do with the shape of the object (concave) affecting the focal length and how the light rays either physically or virtually converge in accordance to our position in front of the mirror. Light and color are about as close as you can get to applying science to art. Doesn't surprise me why art was so intertwined with metaphysics or polymaths. You can get really autistic about "hacking" the brain and our visual systems/perceptions of reality.
>>7856929original anon, doughnut is slightly wrong, the ground line on the left minecraft torch should snake around to the middle, my bad.>>7856918picrelThe torus as viewed from an angle is basically just a concave shape next to a convex shape. Like a corrugated fence bent into a circle.
