		Life continues in an unbroken chain from the remote past.

	Life is illusion and a dream; conscience is a small flame
		Life is illusion and a dream; conscience is a small flame
		An illusion, a dream, a fiction, and the biggest well is small, because all life is a dream, and the dreams, themselves are only dreams.
		It is part of human nature, and is a way of escaping from the difficult side of life, from the suffering and lack of meaning present in our deeper existence.

	The Illusion of Life
		Life like being on a motorcycle, encompasses so much more than just one path and one line of thought.
		The illusion of life will be over, and only the things that were real and permanent will matter.
		But within the limitations of this "a priori" illusion of time and space that we call the present, this little cycle may be as close as I come for now.

	NPR : Safety Is an Illusion
		Life is an adventure, meant to be lived.
		Sometimes I think that the illusion of safety, the illusion of unlimited time unfolding into the future, of "later" and "someday", is something that people maintain because they need it -- it's too scary otherwise -- its too hard to live in that place in your head all the time.
		It is scarier to know that it's an illusion, and sometimes its overwhelming to try to integrate that knowledge into ones life and choices, but that knowledge can enrich and strengthen one in "regular" life as well.

	The Illusion of Death
		Jesus proved this to us by saying that no one could take his Life from him, and that if those who wished to kill him were to do so in three days he would be back, raised up again.
		That is what the 'man-life' or 'human life' is, a jumbled mass of confused thoughts, referred to in the Bible as the "carnal mind", which is lived out between the parenthesis of (birth and death).
		But until then a thought 'life' is formed and is so convincingly real to the dreamer that he will remain with it unless he hears something within himself to shake him out of it.

		In the title, "Life" refers to the biological processes by which living things maintain themselves over time; "Money" refers to the present economic ideology that says that as long as the volume of money changing hands increases, all will be well.
		"Illusion" refers to the fact that these two perspectives are directly opposed in terms of how they would solve current problems.

		That is a way of escaping from the hostile reality, from life’s cruelty, from the threat of death, from the uninteresting.
		Our thoughts about the illusion and the dreams in which we live, are a proof of that «wavering small flame», that Edgar Morin speaks of.

	"Illusion of life" and motion-capture? - Page 2 - AWN Forums
		I have used Optical Motion capture system with 16 camera setup, the Advantages are few, like you can roll out large volume of 3D Animation, with not much of Life in the characters (say for second grade content, for TV series and episodes).
		Fairly recent there was a film depending heavily on rotoscoping, Waking Life (2003) While I must admit, I couldnt get myself to watch the entire film, Waking Life is also being claimed to prove rotoscoping is at the least an interesting tool in the animators toolbox.
		Some of the fundamental "principles of animation," which make it so interesting to look at, are avoided when you take directly from life: squash and stretch, exaggeration, and appeal.

	Gamasutra - MIGS: Ken Perlin on the Illusion of Life
		Obsidian Brings Sega's Alien To Life [12.13.06] Following the recent news that it had acquired the license to 20th Century Fox's popular sci-fi/horror series Alien, Sega has announced that developer Obsidian (KOTOR II, Neverwinter Nights 2) will create a next-gen RPG based on the film.
		Ken Perlin, a professor from the Department of Computer Science at New York University, opened his Montreal International Game Summit talk, “The Illusion of Life, Revisited” by referencing Walt Disney’s comments that animation creates “the Illusion of Life”, a statement made over 60 years ago.
		With video games not even born by the time of Disney’s statement, Perlin argued that the industry had a lot still to learn about the possibilities on offer to create the illusion of life in games; most strikingly by not simply using traditional animation techniques.

		The game worlds we inhabit are becoming so vast that the illusion of life is seemingly upon us.
		Yet, despite the often-staggering environmental (and gameplay) achievements continually crafted by developers around the globe, there's an integral facet of the creation process that's not receiving the same due care and attention - and it's becoming ever-more apparent as game worlds evolve.
		It was a far cry from the usual walk animation used when turning on the spot.
