Living in the era of digital world encourages people to think out of the box, whereby in each individual perspectives and traits lies the desire to step forward, to create self-salience, to expose themselves vividly, since the freedom of speech has given great opportunity to reach out, to be heard and to share ideas.

Pushing the limits, media and cyberspace are now merging, thus putting the human creativity and technology combination onto the next level. Based on the article “Making it easier to be creative” posted by The Star Online on November 4, 2008, Autodesk has released a series of new updates for its media and entertainment software solutions in Maya 2009, MotionBuilder 2009 and Mudbox 2009.

These creative, powerful graphic software engines enable developers and animators to focus on developing their creations further rather than being bogged down by technical aspects of the processes. Sculpting digitally Mudbox 2009 gives 3D modellers and texture artists more freedom to create.

A new, production-focused texture paint workflow in this software version simplifies the process of painting multiple diffuse, bump, specular, and reflection textures across multiple high-resolution maps.

These new updates drive us the change from highly technical to more creative processes, which allow artists to freely experiment and better express themselves in the digital world. Producing a piece of arts will never be this easier, modern and complex.

Today, we can amaze the world with using only our imagination, creativity and technology, by given the ultimate space of the cyber world, a systematic chaos of digital home beyond human’s glass prison of thoughts.
