Vector Mixing

Hi Kent,

I must admit that I was stumped at first by the fact that Mixing the Vector Coordinates before the Noise Texture didn't work; I would have wanted to do that as well.

Basically, the two vectors cancel out in the middle of the transition. I will add an image next (can't add one directly under a lesson) to show what's happening mathematically.

If the transition were also Linear, instead of Bezier, the Vector, and therefor the Noise pattern would even be constant!

    I hope this is clear.

    Thanks for posting this spikeyxxx. It's very helpful to see supporting math for why this doesn't work the way we'd expect
