Contact Machine HD Rebuild

1080p rebuild of the Contact machine.

I had a childhood obsession with this machine when I was very young! I find it so fascinating just to watch, and the idea is so interesting to me. This looks awesome.

Please do not underestimate the trojan-horse hypothesis: you build it, then it acts as a stargate to teleport an army of kaijus on earth :(

[@RonaldDScum]

Same! It’s one of those things in Science Fiction that I wish was real because it looks so cool!

[@richardtrigaux8056]

Blender user here... great work, I could never figure after the movie alone how those darn rings move :D

[@julienh.5057]

Haha, thx 1st time user though, quick n dirty...

[@TheDaexiled1]

It was gone for hours though not to us, but that fraction of a second it entered then exited the singularity to our eyes, we need the slo-mo bros to show us

[@steveogle3679]

The real leap is knowing/finding that everything we need to travel is on the inside not the outside.

[@MarkLLynch]

That actually made me cry. Well done 👍

[@julienh.5057]

Really? Thanks!🙂

[@magicman2023]

Ezekiel definitely saw one of those 😁

[@rodsims8471]

That was really interesting to see how the rings coupled and moved relative to etch other , I would pay good money for a prop like this , it like a 3d gyroscope , very cool . Thanks you . it has inspired me .

[@julienh.5057]

Hi Rod, for the rings rotations I loosely copied the movie scene, and I think the explanations were different in the book (pre-movie drawings of the machine look very different). Thanks for your comment :)

Thing about this device...I was surprised when that luminance appeared- ! It seems so intriguing such an interesting device has been thought of ,by Carl Sagan as possible to generate a wormhole !!! Fantastic book movie everything ! A tour de force !!! Thanks for this beautiful blender piece !!

[@LivingLifeInTheCommunity]

Great work; way-to-go.

Could someone clarify something for me? She went to another dimension not another planet, right?

[@Rockybalboarules25]

Hey:) The machine created a dent in the fabric of space-time that enabled us to access the aliens transit system of wormholes that lead to Vega. The spinning rings somehow opened a pathway through other dimensions . When the machine was activated, it was basically like "making a phone call" to the aliens at Vega. The aliens detected the machines activation and "answered our phone call on the other end", this enabled them to gain control of the ipv Ellie was in and bring it through their transit system to the correct destination. Ellie DID go to Vega. (Although the science behind the machines function is currently beyond our understanding.) We understood how to build the machine, but we didn't know or understand how it actually worked.

[@jbro8934]

Ian Robinson excellent answer! Thank you!!

[@rodsims8471]

It's a little weird what went , her mind or her body . as she was able to manipulate , distort her perceived surroundings with just a wave of her hands ( was it real ), and her thoughts were downloaded , so It's hard to say IF she physically went there or just some element of her consciousness , but from her physical body's perspective she had been in side the pod for 17 hours , and never really left the pod ..

The Machine opened a wormhole!

[@jmitterii2]

Book explains more. But the movie mentions it's wormholes, she went through it physically with that capsule. She went through a collection of wormholes. The Vega portal was actually an outpost recording a new born solar system; the ET's weren't really from Vega. When she arrives at Vega, she is sent through another wormhole, this one connected to many others, as in the movie as well as the books she describes many of them while in transit. In the movie, she asks who built them, the ET's say they don't know, whoever did, did so long before, and they've just been using them. In the book, the celestial body event she's describes as so beautiful in the movie, is explained by the ET's that they're using a quasar to restart star formation in a dead galaxy, as well as some other technique that would in a way reverse entropy. In the book, it's a team that went, not just her. She describes the ET's based on the levels of technology being billions of years old... that they've been around for a long long time. They give her information on computing more efficiently more numbers of pi, which reveal a circular pattern. This pattern indicates the universe itself was likely engineered with intent. As well as provides evidence of her trip in the first place. So in short, yes. She went. In the book, she's given evidence via the computation that can be used that reveals more digits of pi that then will reveal a pattern. In the movie as well as in the book, you get the interaction with the aliens as Pensacola and deceased father. She asks more questions and gets more answers in the book. This interaction at this point with the ET's is holographic, not "real".
