Joining with a focus on technical node logic. This is my baseline.

Project: "River Styx" - River: Simulated via . - Environment: Procedural flora scattering via . - Characters: Voxel-based.

I prioritize technical execution over traditional aesthetics. Audio: Pixabay.

Testing some test lighting variants with audio input and got a bit carried away. Nearly fell over the chair at one point. Think I need to work on my cardio.
Perf not bad for a laptop 3070 GPU!

It's coming along... a new procedural, animated Jupiter-like atmosphere for Blender for my fellow sci-fi nerds. It's just a procedural shader.

I’m excited to announce our paper, which makes of implicit surfaces (GPISes) practical:

Project page: https://cs.dartmouth.edu/~wjarosz/publications/xu25practical.html

We achieve this with a novel noise formulation and by enabling next-event estimation for specular BRDFs. [1/7]

It's a new year, and I felt like drawing a sunflower. It turned out looking more like a sunflower crossed with a dahlia. Oh well. Happy new year!

I've started new posts for this coming month of drawings:

Going with some fun fungi for today's drawing. Also made a lot of progress on this big piece. I might be able to finish it tomorrow.

Here's an in-progress shot.

My plugin now has a readme and docs (in the Editor).

Starting a tutorial soon as I respoon.

Would appreciate any feedback. It's lonely out here!

To my fellow Generative Artists, who are frustrated with the big AI-tech-bro companies taking over the term "generative":

I've reworked the artist statement I put up at in-person shows. I now use the term "Procedural" instead of "Generative".

It works! People get it! They appreciate it! And they ask great questions now.

So, if you're doing a show, and you want to try it out...try using "Procedural" in your statements.

"Quantum Spider"

Hidden in the folds of time
She throws her nets
Dancing between being there and not
Feeding on the constant flux of energies
At a speed where a blink of an eye
Is g l a c i a l . . . .

Midi from into Studio with 3 instances of 3. Audio into to drive all animation.

Many tiny particles connected by lines move at very high speed between different constellations - based on the soundtrack - that sometimes are reminiscent of technoid spiderwebs. Color spectrum ranges from white to orange and blue on a black background.

Well, the finished animation is a bit too big to upload to Mastodon, but you can watch it here: https://youtube.com/watch?v=CpwvWxD6dHk

I'm probably going to troubleshoot the slow render times, tweak a few other things a bit, and re-render it though.

More contour lines! 🗺️

I did this while I was breaking apart the lines in the original material into their own segment of the shader, so I could enable/disable them however I like.

This map thing is out of control, lol. A good warmup for my next gig, though! 😅
