I'm not entirely sure how you're calculating the 'rotating' quaternion between the two vectors, but I'm pretty sure it's very cumbersome. At least, if I understand you correctly, you have 'look' vectors which point in some direction, and the object 'looks' along that direction from the origin (0,0,0), correct?.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
