The animation of the future Turkish city was created in two months by using the TeraGrid, a National Science Foundation-funded research computing grid. Purdue is one of 11 research institutions that comprise TeraGrid, which is the world's largest open science computing grid. The animation was rendered using the TeraGrid Distributed Rendering Environment, or TeraDRE, developed by research scientists in Information Technology at Purdue.

  • Simply horrid, awful

  • @tgold1968 LOL true

  • I love the idea of using 3D animation to present the design or layout of a new city. However, cities are inherently organic places. I am uncertain they can be divided so neatly into different districts. 

  • Hmm...no mosques...FAIL!

  • ive built waaaaaaaaaaayyyyy better cities in the 90's at age 8 in sim city 2000

  • The credits don't include the planners and urban designers. By the look of it, there weren't any.

  • Was just about to post the same thing myself. Have these people learned nothing from successful cities built over time with mixed zoning?

  • it does look like ghetto, especially where the entertainment should be...

  • This is idiotic. Could someone please teach these guys about mixing uses? This looks like an urban model from the 60's! "Government District," "Hotel District." Please read some new urbanist literature!

  • Texture are so bad !!! but anyway is nice modeling skill ~ and ...good camera skill smooth ~ ...
