If life was a video game… wait, what if it is? Below, we have some very intense evidence that points to the fact that our reality is full of weird, unexplainable glitches.

Quite like Blade Runner, GTA V, and even The Sims, what if Elon Musk was right and it’s one hell of a simulation? Well, let’s not just jump to conclusions before scrolling through this entertaining compilation of photos with things that look like rendering errors. Think of blurs, pixels, stuff being out of focus, you name it.

Upvote your favorite pics and be sure to check out our previous post with real-life photos that look like screenshots of a video game or a movie set.

Or the wall is colored (on the right there is a pink "shadow") or the leaves are made of green and pink plastic that project its color on the wall. Real leaves (non transparent ones) make a shadow as any solid - black on the surface.

The shadow of the dead tree is also somewhat pink. We may be looking at shadows created by light sources of two different color temperatures. One could be a very yellow sodium lamp and the other a very blue LED one.

    To find out what an expert had to say about computer rendering and what to make of these real-life visual examples that resemble such renderings, Bored Panda reached out to Arnas Gaudutis, a 3D lighting and rendering artist with 15 years of experience in the 3D graphics field, working on various projects from game art to film VFX and product rendering.

    “Computer rendering usually is described as image synthesis, it's a process of generating an image from a 2D or 3D model by means of a computer program. Synonyms of render can be paint, draw, portray, reproduce,” Arnas explained.

    He added that computer renders usually strive for photorealism, to simulate real world light and physics, and it's a really complex thing to compute for a machine. “Whereas in photography, a camera accumulates all light (photons) through the lens and burns into film or sensor by pressing a button. In a virtual 3D program, it's usually vice versa, all pixels of an image are generated through a virtual camera, where rays are shot from the camera, to get pixel properties—color, light, shadow, reflections, etc…”

    Turns out that this way, “pixel by pixel (millions of them), an image is generated by a program, where the user defines its settings and creates objects, light and materials. These days, 3D programs and render engines are quite advanced compared to 10-15 years ago. They have technology that effectively simulates light and other complex real-world phenomena.”

    Where the name came from is really cool too: A Fata Morgana is a complex form of superior mirage that is seen in a narrow band right above the horizon. It is an Italian term named after the Arthurian sorceress Morgan le Fay, from a belief that these mirages, often seen in the Strait of Messina, were fairy castles in the air or false land created by her witchcraft to lure sailors to their deaths

    Contrary to what many believe, “Bad computer rendering usually is caused by the user, not the program, either from lack of experience or artistic eye,” Arnas explained. “You can make things look bad even with the most powerful programs. For example, a professional photographer can take amazing photos using his senses and knowledge of composition, while another person with the same camera and lenses can pick wrong angles or a bad camera setting can take horrible photos—you can't blame the camera.”

    The rendering artist continued: “Same is with computer programs—decisions made in a creative process are the ones that make computer rendering bad or good. There are areas where some technological limitations can be the cause of a bad-looking render, or by time needed to achieve the perfect result being cut. So it's a combination of both user and program errors.”

    There’s this peculiar effect that bad rendering creates in images. “From an artistic point of view, bad composition or sense of lighting and material definition of objects in computer-generated images are the most common.”

    ADVERTISEMENT

    “For example, the human face or eyes are the hardest thing to generate by means of a 3D computer program. There comes the term 'uncanny valley'—where even with the most advanced technologies, the generated image does not 'cut' the feeling that something is wrong or unrealistic,” Arnas said.

    “From a technical standpoint, effects are,” he continued, “noisy images, jagged edges, or some other rendering errors that can happen during the process of generating the image, that give a feeling that it's not real or computer generated.”

    There are attachments to tractors that lift a large pruning attachment to the desired height and then they just drive along the path. Used a lot these days in some types of orchards. Can also have a mowing attachment that can lift quite high and tilt to any angle so mowing berms and ditch sides can be done from the road along the ditch.

    Arnas reminded us that in the computer world, everything is way too perfect, like smooth surfaces, razor-sharp edges, evenly spaced objects and so on, and thus, it can result in unrealistic rendering effects. Meanwhile, in the real world, nothing is perfect, he said. Things like “dust, scratches, deformed lines and shapes can be barely noticeable to the eye, but it gives the sense of reality.”

    It turns out that imperfections make things realistic. “Computer rendering strives for photography or real-life effects, where commercial photography sometimes strives for the super clean surfaces, reflections or other effects like in computer-generated images,” Arnas explained.

    When asked what he thinks of photos called ‘real-life bad rendering artifacts,’ Arnas said that it's either artistic choice or an undesirable effect that can happen due to human error. “Most of them are artistic choices, some of them being at the right time or place, picking the right angle or setting, you can capture strange-looking real life phenomena,” he said.

    In spite of its rather spartan look, this furniture is in fact very comfortable. It’s designed by Arne Quinze en Yves Milan, two Belgian artists/designers, for their brand Quinze & Milan. The pieces are part of the ‘Primary Collection’ (1999), and are all made of QM FOAM™, a material they developed themselves: it’s very strong, very comfortable, and very expensive ;-).

    Moreover, “not all things that we can see with a naked eye or camera can be realistic or beautiful, where a computer generated image can have technological limitations (for example, no shadows or reflections in old games) rendering it as unrealistic.”

    Fun fact: the wick isn't what keeps a candle burning. It would burn quickly and then be done. The sublimating wax is what takes a long time to burn. Usually the wick pulls that wax up (you might even say that it *wicks* the wax), and so that's why the candle burns there. In this case, for some reason, the heat is centered elsewhere.

    Also known as visual examples of “IRL glitch in the matrix,” the interest in such visually confusing photos has to do with another greater trend. Those who believe in the theory of simulation, Elon Musk included, find such pictures not just entertaining, but illustrative of the fact that no reality is objective and perfect. Ours included.

    And while for some, this is purely a subject of debate to elaborate on with friends over a bar counter, some truly believe that our universe is a simulation run by a higher-order technological civilization. So in order to find what exactly that means and how it changes our perspective of reality, we reached out to Gunnar De Winter, the science communication specialist at the Flanders Institute of Biotechnology.

    “Basically, the simulation hypothesis is the idea that our lives, our universe is a simulation run by some higher-order technological civilization,” Gunnar said and continued: “This rests on the assumption that at some point a civilization will have the computational resources to run such a civilization.”

    “If they then run several of such simulations, we could additionally assume that, if we are a random sample, we're more likely to be one of the simulations rather than one of the rare 'real' civilizations,” he explained.

    This is an interior shot of one of the smaller sections of the Sultan Ahmed Mosque (aka The Blue Mosque of Istanbul). When this photo was taken (over 2 years ago) the Mosque was undergoing renovations and the pillars had been covered to protect them. So yes they look bad low resolution renders due to the basic covering used.

    Gunnar explained further: “Let's say that we are indeed living in a simulation, what would that mean for us as individuals? For your daily life, probably not much. Could you hack the simulation or find cheat codes? Even if possible, that would be risky. We are part of the simulation, so if you break it or have the beings who do the simulating turn it off, it would effectively erase our universe.”

    On the other hand, Gunnar added that you could argue that living in a simulation is an encouragement to live life to the fullest. “After all, the more interesting you make it for whoever is running the simulation, the lower the chance that they would flick the off button.”

    “Finally, living in a simulation—and being aware of it—would bring a whole host of interesting philosophical questions to the forefront, as well as consideration on religion, and so on,” he explained.

    When asked whether there’s a possible way to prove or disprove that we live in a simulation, Gunnar said that there are a few ideas, “but as for whether those are actually technically possible—that's way beyond my expertise.”

    He continued: “Most of these ideas are about either zooming in or out. We could try to look at the smallest bits of reality, the resolution of the simulation. If we find a certain 'pixel size' that doesn't fit with our current physical theories, that might be a clue.”

    That's most definitely diseased. Look at the other leaves, most of them show a more common pattern associated with problems like infection or water/food. Also. Color, yes, but green is a very specific one coming from chlorofyl, certainly in leaves. It's what most plant life use to grow. Leaves are not yellow, yellow is very unwanted.

    My old chemistry professor had a theory about that saying "An apple a day keeps the doctor away" - he attributed it to the trace amounts of cyanide in apple seeds, which in those small amounts acts as an antioxidant in the body. Of course this requires you eat the core and all, which I tried once and have done ever since. I highly recommend it; the core isn't nearly as hard to chew up as most think, and the no-waste (and bonus antioxidants!) make it totally wholesome experience.

    Someone please interpret the caption into language. I see shadows coming from structures on the right out of camera range or cropped.

    The title is referring to graphics settings in games. If you weren't aware of the building to the right, the shadow of the tree would seem to be generated using the lowest possible resources.

    Bushes in late 90's games were usually two flat bush sprites joined together through the middle at a straight angle.

    They still do that now in some games, only with more flat plains at more angles.

    Once again, it isn't a real life glitch, it's a phone picture glitch and thus doesn't belong here
