Subdivision


The pyramid prism has the most common properties of refraction which is why I picked it as the base. Using a concept called subdivision, I subdived each side of the pyramid to add more sides. The reason behind this is that the more surface area and edges there are, the more refractions I'll get from my prisms.

Basically the guy shows 3 lines that continuously divide in two. Very cool stuff.
