Used Claude Code/Gemini to help me make a CEF browser->Spout2 simple app for Windows that ill release soon. Going to do the same for Syphon on MacOS because why not. There were old implementations of this, but most were abandoned. Let me know if this sounds useful!

Excellent, thanks for pointing that out!

😍 I’m going to show this to my creative coding students in a couple of months

YouTube video by LuigiBlood Mario Artist Communication Kit OST - Main Menu

What I'm listening to today: "Main Menu", Kazumi Totaka

From "Mario Artist: Communication Kit", a piece of pure utility software for operating the Japan-only N64 modem. Maybe Totaka's most experimental work ever; it's mostly minimal ambient. One floaty techno track:

Ooh very nice use case!

I’ve been coding professionally for 25 years and sometimes feel like I know nothing 😅 But I still love learning how to use new puzzle pieces!

Onnx models seem to be the most portable format across languages/frameworks. There’s an onnx SDK for lots of languages. I will admit that understanding the input/output format took a lot of time to understand, and I used some coding assistance to get there! I certainly spent days learning and trying

I've been working towards implementing a number of onnx computer vision models directly in TouchDesigner. It's wild how much python I'm writing these days.
This is DepthAnythingV2 running at 60fps with a 256x256 input. ~10ms inference time on a laptop 4090 🤯

I think it's perfect. Thank you for sharing!

I’ll be showing this to my students next semester. Incredible work! 🙇

Algorithms for making interesting organic simulations Article explaining simulation algorithms that produce complex organic behaviours, starting with the classic physarum algorithm from Jeff Jones.

I wrote this article explaining algorithms for physarum-style simulations

Dream Job alert…

This looks great! I’ll be following the development. I’m a big web components proponent too :) I’ve used picocss for years, and this seems like it has a similar ethos plus web component patterns 😍

13 people were arrested protesting Palantir’s surveillance of Americans.

Palantir is profiting off of ICE raids. It’s refining its tracking techniques & gathering data at lightning speed.

Bellingcat CEO @eliothiggins.bsky.social:

At the end of the interview, I don’t believe we learned anything except that Dave probably wears a “Trump was right about everything”. Nothing else registers for him. He’s a mini-Trump who provides no intellectual value. I should’ve listened to something else, and that’s my bad.

I listened, and am a longtime NPR & Steve fan. Dave spouted so much lopsided, aggrieved garbage with little pushback. His comparison that Trump is honest and dems lied about Biden was an astonishing summation of his critical thinking and trustworthiness. He’s obvs a bad faith source of information.

“No brainer” is spot on 🤦‍♂️ Yeesh

YouTube video by Creative Code Toronto p5.strands demo: Shaders without GLSL

At the last Creative Code Toronto, I did a little demo about how to create + animate shapes with p5.strands, our new shaders-in-JavaScript system. I'll get some more polished stuff out eventually, but hopefully this sheds some light on the things you can do! www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rxQ...

This was the original from a couple of years ago, built with my @processing.org tools. TD makes SSAO so easy, but otherwise the process was almost identical.

Thank you Taylor! 🙏

Thank you 🙏

🙏🙏🙏

I will say that collaborating with a dev team has much bigger challenges (version control, multiple contributors, etc)

Collapsing nodes into a base Comp is one of the ways that you can mirror classic OOP organization. It took me a while to learn all of the ways, but my larger TD projects end up structured like my Java(Script) projects!

It’s been a while but I still love making generative loops
