Experimental: PickyPalette — a color picker that shows you the weight of each color as you build your palette. See how much space a color claims. Every color fights for its territory in the color space. So you know exactly how dominant or subtle your pick is. WDYT? meodai.github.io/color-palett...

I made a map of 3.4 million Bluesky users - see if you can find yourself! bluesky-map.theo.io I've seen some similar projects, but IMO this seems to better capture some of the fine-grained detail

Hi - I am finally trying to leave X behind me and hope to find that old twitter feel over here😊 So, if you are into CG art, Sound Design or experimental animation filmmaking I would be happy to connect. Here's my showreel with some personal and professional projects. #3d #cgi #motion #sound #art

I wrote a little primer on rigid body dynamics in Houdini after seeing a lot of similar questions online. Bullet is a pretty deep rabbit hole to fall into and there's a lot of legacy stuff that's very confusing for new artists... hopefully this helps you get started! www.toadstorm.com/blog/?p=1123

@sidefx.bsky.social recently published the 3 ML projects I built during my time in Toronto :) If you want to teach Houdini how to understand your drawings, learn how to build an ML groom deformer or how to use PCA to dejitter animations, you can find the files and tutorials on their website!

Here are two covers proposals for the current Cell issue, but it didn't make it. I love these renders because they are just data, nothing else! Congrats to @merlinlange.bsky.social & @loicaroyer.bsky.social ! #dataviz #sciart 🐡 🧪 Data imported and rendered in #houdini @sidefx.bsky.social

To convert more people to the Houdini Python side of life, I will be launching “Twelve Days of Python” on December 1st. 12 days to take you from nothing to something, and start making your own tools and workflow enhancements in Houdini. Get excited! www.houpywiki.com/Twelve-Days-...

Little Apex explainer targeted at experienced Houdini folk. It's rough (got a cold, ugh), but figured it'll be useful to people like me who were simultaneously interested and apprehensive. Will likely re-record later when my voice recovers and I learn more things... www.youtube.com/watch?v=U9-e...

After seeing @stephanhelbing.bsky.social 's amazing hive presentation on slit-scanning a couple months back, I really wanted to play around with it myself. I finally had some time a couple weeks ago and experimented with @gurmoose.bsky.social 's awesome violin render. Thanks for letting me use it:)
