I’ve never been sued by a door. But I guess I can live through it.

I'm interested in the intersection of computer graphics, simulation, geometry, art and the occasional ceramics/woodworking.

Yes, I am looking for work.

Graphics or creative based, ideally!
I have experience with:

-WebGl, OpenGL, webgpu
-computational geometry
-datavis, plotly, d3, etc

I've built:
-mult-resolution 2D annotators
-terabyte scale volume renderers
-realtime labeling systems for digital globes

And I do terrible things to the Stanford Bunny

Thanks!

To whom it may concern,
In lieu of a cover letter, I have snail-mailed an envolope with an assortment of my teeth. I hope they find you well. Please see attached resume for relevent skills.

If you are a rendering person who wants the freedom to explore possible future rendering techniques, or want time to solve real problems hitting game devs, SEED is a great place to work.
The last 2 years has been mainly self led, working on some things I'm real proud of. A couple of them becoming public over the next couple months.

After listening to a lot of the Beatles, I convince myself that Paul is the best Beatle...

Then after an urge to listen to 801s cover of Tomorrow Never Knows, and I'll be damned if Brian Eno isn't actually the best Beatle.

Hi all! I'm going to be exhibiting some work at the Ojai Valley Museum.

The opening is this Friday, February 16th. I'm looking forward to sharing the space with a bunch of talented artists.

The work will be up from Feb 15-April 7th.

You've heard of shuffling algorithms, but did you know you can use (sliced) optimal transport to unshuffle? 😀
Actually doing that for something right now oddly enough.

@demofox I solve optimal transport problems with meshes using signed distance fields. You have a starting mesh and a target. You move the starting mesh in the normal direction by the magnitude of the underlying signed distance of the target. Looking at the donut problem, could you do something similar with convex hulls?

@yogthos I hope so... an order of magnitude battery improvement would change a lot of things.

Hey, how do you turn a bunny into a torus? You fit a darboux cyclide! I didn't get it to connect to a full torus, but kind of fun.

I'm using moving least squares and normal constrained fitting to fit a cyclide to a set of points with normals.

Is it useful? I dunno?

Its a bunny that almost turns into a donut, well, maybe an arc of a donut. I'm sorry bunny.

I need to serve mp4s for an installation. I couldn't find a movie viewer that would fade smoothly between videos, so I wrote one with npm:

https://github.com/apetrock/ExLax/tree/main

Its pretty tailored for what I need, but please use it! Extend it!

It uses a single shader with two textures and fades between them.

React cannot get out of its own way. Bad choice when a static index.html would have been fine... you live and learn. I'll fix it later.

@loosenut @jesshewitt

I've been doing a lot of little React studies for work, so it seemed like a natural entry point, until a component would get updated for no discernible reason and lose state.

Its probably a mixture of my lack of experience with React and the fact that React isn't particularly well suited for static websites. Threejs has baggage, too since all one needs is a rectangle and a shader. Live and learn.

The middle of the iron on my jack is really hard to sharpen, so I have a theory: my oilstones are not quite flat anymore. This was my project this morning. Now that both stones are beautifully flat (they are a year old, this had to happen eventually) I’ll sharpen up my jack iron now and should see in a few minutes if this does the trick.

I didn't participate in this year... maybe I'll go through and do a bunch of sketches for ideas that I could do... if I made the time...

But I did make this stamp.

I started making hand bound notebooks as christmas presents. Some discord friends mentioned that towards the end of a journal/sketchbook there is always an eagerness to move on to the bright and shiny new journal, leaving a bunch of blank pages at the end. Hence, the stamp.

There is no shame in Blanc pages.

@toxi
I have a question about thi.ng. I've been at a stage where I'm thinking about pulling libraries out into separate repos, but there is a matter of glue code.

How do you handle glue code, or cases where one library calls another? Do you abstract your objects enough so they have proper iterators/rely on a standard interface or do you package the glue code in a separate library? Both approaches have there merit one is easy the other takes some thought. Just curious about your philosophy.

Something about cold and rainy days makes me want to bake

Baking begins with Luigi, my jar of yeasty sourdough gloop. Luigi has been living in my fridge for a decade or so, with weekly outings to the counter for a feast of King Arthur's all purpose flour slurry

@mathling I use parchment paper for pizza on a stone/steel. I put my boules, well flowered, in the Dutch Oven with good results... but really parchment paper is the best.

Onsequitur,
@Onsequitur@genart.social avatar

@mathling Interesting... I've never actually baked with our pyrex. For some reason I worry about it cracking.

I was told to push the oven temp as hot as it will go for the first 10 minutes... I feel like that may have been bad advice.

This scientist in me wants to start doing experiments with controls.
