Earlier this year, somebody asked on Quora: What is the difference between pixel and voxel? I sometimes can’t help myself, so instead of giving a straight answer, I wrote a whole article on the topic. I get the question. Society serves you things like the movie posters for Pixels and you are genuinely confused. Is it a pixel? Is it a voxel? Is it a bird? Is it a plane? They sure don’t make it easy
