Magi Craft Meister

The examination of "Magic Formation Mapping Techniques" continues.

"As Reiko did earlier, if I were to draw from scratch, I would have absolutely no problem..."

Jen says.

But then, complicated magic formations would take too long to draw.

Jen wonders if he can apply the technology used on Earth.

(The TV... what was it... I said 'raster image'?

I mean, I thought about scanning the scan lines, left and right, and up and down, like TV, to draw images,

(Doesn't sound very practical)

and concluded that

In the first place, Jen is not familiar with the technology of his hands.

"When that happens, it looks like there's a good way to use the 'mould' to project the magic formation"

So let's set the direction and figure out how to overcome the problems on it.

"Reflective, what about that?

OHP (overhead projector) also has few but such methods.

There are advantages of being able to use handwritten manuscripts and photographs directly (without having to copy them into OHP-only films), although there are easy problems with insufficient light and reproducibility of colors.

Around 2000 A.D., when Jen was a student, it was still used in schools and offices.

Now I have a feeling that it has become obsolete because there are projectors and huge monitors that reflect the screen of the computer.

Jen had seen the reflective type once or twice.

"If you draw with a silver line on black paper, don't you often see it?

and Jen suggests,

"I see. It's easy to make data or 'shapes'"

Eira agreed.

"Paper...... or wouldn't the base be fine with black stone slabs?

Gloma said it would be easier to use it as a 'mould' because it would have a flat surface.

"Sure. I hope the light thrower will be a magic guide..."

"In this direction, it seems to have the advantage of being easy to make, cheaper to cost,"

Kathea says evaluation from an economic point of view.

"Then the problem is' trigger 'after all..."

Neither Jen nor I can think of an immediate solution.

Cathea speaks there.

"In short, you just need to complete the unfinished magic formation when you want to use it, right?

"That's it!

Jen listened to Kathea speak, and an idea flashed.

"Keep a part of the trigger magic formation missing and complement it there when you activate it."

"When you do, you're gonna need two projectors, aren't you?

To Jen's remarks, Gloma raised the issue.

"No, I'm not. So here comes the benefit of using 'light throwers' and 'moulds'"

Jen suggested a method for slipping through parts of the mold and causing it to be missing, and then inserting it there if necessary.

"I see! Simple, but effective."

Eira seems to agree.

"Manually, I'm a little concerned..."

Gloma seems just a little dissatisfied.

As for him, he imagined that when he activated the demon conductor, the rest was automatic.

"In that case, you just have to let the golem arm do the fitting."

Jen, on the other hand, is splitting up. The first thing I want to do is make it, because I think it is.

And

"Oh, would it be better to be transmissive, not reflective?

I figured if it was transparent, it would be superimposed like a cell painting to complete the magic formation.

Let's say it's a unique idea for Jen, who knows animation culture.

"So you draw a magic formation on clear glass. Overlay it...... maybe you can overlap the magical effects too?

Kathea says it sounds interesting, but Jen denied it.

"No, yeah, that won't work. Experiment and you'll see, there's probably something called compatibility between magic formations, and I think interfering magic will be ineffective."

If you overlap the magic formations of fire and water attributes, they will strike each other out rather than activate them both.

"But if you can superimpose fire attribute magic to make it more effective, can't you?

Eating down kachairs.

"No, how about that, too?

Now Eira argued.

"It's the same as 3D Magic Formation. There are only a few free magic elements (ethers) to be supplied, so you'll be the necklace."

"Oh, right..."

Jen comforted the disappointing kachair.

"No, because this is only a theory. I think it's important to experiment and check."

"And then, do you still want 'transparent'?

says Gloma Tray.

"If you don't have enough light, you can't project far away."

"Hmm, maybe Gloma's right"

Though it was two or three turns, it was decided that it would eventually be transparent.

"In that case, will the magic formation be a black line?

Drawing magic formations on transparent glass and such will inevitably do so, says Eira.

"Why don't you just scratch the black painted glass and draw it?

"Oh well. That's Gin!

It is the idea of negatives and posi, but such a shift can be made immediately, also because Jen was in touch with such technology in modern Japan.

"If you do that, you have a photoprojector, and you project the magic formation by plugging in a 'mould' there."

"Don't be like that."

It was thought that a kachair that would be most oblivious to these technologies would put them together, which would be easy for everyone to understand.

"Uh, does that work? Don't you get blurred?

"I think it's best to worry about that. So we have to prototype and try everything."

Even the slide projector is adjusting the lens for projection to focus.

"I don't know if I should use a pinhole."

As for Jen, he doesn't need to focus, which means he wants to reduce the time lag as much as possible.

If you project and focus on……, you will be late for that because there will be more one-step work.

And the reason for using pinholes is the downside of dark statues, but also the advantages of easy focus.

When you cover the window with cardboard and drill a small hole, the statue that passes through it is projected inverted.

When Jen was a young institution, the Dean demonstrated and showed it to me, it was something I was thrilled with and then wondered about.

Incidentally, this has the name 'Camera Obscura'.

"That sounds interesting!

"That's Jin, you know you've changed!

"Mr. Jin, that's just great!

When we talked about pinhole cameras, Eira, Kathea and Gloma had eaten them, so it was Jen who gave an explanation just like "Magic Formation Mapping Techniques".
