You know what? I know something better than artificial intelligence: intelligence.

It was a huge pleasure putting a real face to an avatar, and meeting some of my clients in person. The kind of encounter that happens far too rarely for my taste. we forget there are people behind the machines.

In the end, what I liked most was... the people! This conf was THE meeting point of my Slacks, Bluesky, LinkedIn... I can't count the number of times I said "It's you!!!"

The format was a bit short to really dig in, and a talk isn't a masterclass either, but getting an in-depth look at a production was genuinely enjoyable to follow.

Willy Brauner @willybrauner.com · 16/09/2026
That was largely made up for by the excellent presentations of specific projects. I loved discovering in more depth certain productions that we've all played around with, spent hours observing and picking apart, or specific design processes.

Generally speaking, I would have liked to hear more about lower-level topics, architecture choices, the use of native WebGPU, and how Threejs orchestrated its adaptation to this new API, for example.

Willy Brauner @willybrauner.com · 16/09/2026
When I found out there was a Threejs conf, which was held in Paris, I finally grabbed my ticket at the last minute for these two days. It was the opportunity to catch up with the latest developments in this very popular library.

Willy Brauner @willybrauner.com · 16/09/2026
Threejs isn't a passion of mine, WebGL is. I mean, I've always liked WebGL experiences, building interfaces with this API, pushing further with WebGPU and its new possibilities. But the library itself (however practical it may be) isn't an end in itself.

I’m stuck on the Advent of Code 2015 day 15 on on a dumb function for 2 weeks. I haven’t given up hope of finding a solution before the end of the year.😄

Mon seul regret est que l’app ne se lance pas aussi rapidement que note d’iOS, par contre son usage sans aucun plugin est très light.

I realized that the software I used the most this year was @obsidian.md . Literally all my thoughts, works, pints and writings are in there. That convinced me to support it by becoming "Catalyst member". I developed, via the plugin API, all I needed; Didn't touch anything for months, it just works ❤️

Holidays are the perfect time to code without AI and get my brain working. I'm playing around by solving some old #adventOfCode puzzles from past years. The 2015 Day 6 challenge is pretty cool, it’s the perfect subject to visualize on a canvas. adventofcode.com/2015/day/6

I made an online demo of the WebGL Flex Avatars! it took some work to pack everything so that it can run online but I managed to fit the gaussian model, 10 expressions & the mesh proxy in 16Mo :) I also added Gaussian relighting and shadow casting, audio playback and a webcam to drive the avatar 🔗 👇️

Last @obsidian.md plugin I developed for my own usage: I can translate or rewrite English formulations on request! This will save me from having to switch to Google Translate at the slightest hesitation. Behind the scene, my plugin use a small local AI model.

I continue to "notionalize" my @obsidian.md with some personal custom plugin like select properties. It's an hybrid solution that allows to set a simple text or select a previous one already created from a drop down. Seems to work pretty good :)

I've been using @notion.com for two years and I love the concept of infinitely nested nodes. But it's time to store my data locally. For me, @obsidian.md is very close to matching Notion's ease of use. That's why I wrote this little plugin that lets you create pages and bases just like in Notion.

I hope you’re wrong on the conclusion, but that seems relevant.
