Here is Volume the Filmstrip Cube! I've had this model completed for sometime and originally made, rigged and textured it one bored afternoon.

He's from a series of filmstrips from the 1974 called "Beginning Metric Measurement Filmstrip". The filmstrips were produced by the American government which I guess makes Volume a federal agent? That would then mean he's the 2nd character I've modeled who is/was an agent for the American Government. (the other hasn't been revealed yet)

I don't know if he's named anywhere. I know his computer is referred to as "The Machine" but he seems nameless. When I first modeled him I named him Epher (after UncommonEphermera) but decided to switch to Volume. He's named after his discoveries.

My headcanon is that he is an optimistic and curious cube content with discovering properties of mathematics. He is following in the footsteps of great people before him like Pythagoras and James Clerk Maxwell. He also loves the moog and listens exclusively to 70s electronic music and 78RPM records. Being a creature of the 70s he has a love for brown carpeted floors, the pre-disco era, vinyl records and the Hollywood Renaissance.

While I intend to release the model there are still things I need to do like adding IK pole targets and making his textures more 'painterly'.
