that new severance got me questioning what I know about the limits of human suffering and greed

how are things going with you all this fine friday morn

Oh this seems super useful, definitely gonna be adding this to my startup file. Thanks!

What's that little toolbar you have at the top of your TD window?

Really dope looking project!

julia set with oscillating real and imaginary terms
#touchdesigner #glsl

ooh sounds promising! I'm not sure I have a good idea of how to implement that, but if you're curious to think up a solution I'd be happy to post my shader code here, it's pretty short!

It does make me wonder, how do people get those infinite fractal zooms to work? If I zoomed into this one any more I'd start hitting the limit for double precision on my value for z, there's gotta be some crazy math sorcery to get around that

just got another shader itch, this time I wanted to figure out how to draw a Mandelbrot fractal with glsl. Once I figured out how to simulate complex numbers with a vec2 it was pretty straightforward!

made with #touchdesigner

playing around a bit more with my lava blobs 🔥
#touchdesigner

custom domain handle surprisingly super easy to set up, @cbaldwin.art is a lot cleaner that what I had before lol

yeah I saw that but haven't tried it yet, seems like it'd be worthwhile to mess around and see what I can do with it!

thanks! It is really cool to have an entirely new approach to rendering in 3D, definitely a big paradigm shift to not be working with vertices & triangles anymore

YouTube video by SimonDev Ray Marching, and making 3D Worlds with Math

Yeah! This video was super helpful for my understanding, it's basically using ray marching as a way to smoothly approximate where surfaces are, based on the signed distance function of objects in the scene

ok this raymarching thing is kinda cool

some more blobby action

wanted to try setting up raymarching in #touchdesigner and it's kinda just working??

the shader I made for this is very much based on info I learned from videos by @simondev.bsky.social and @sebastianlague.bsky.social, thank you for your knowledge 🙏

Honestly gonna talk to my therapist about this lol bc this seems like a lot of fun and I wanna know how I can let myself be ok with participating haha

I wanna force myself to post stupid shit as practice. Nobody I know irl is on this app yet so that’s another inhibition I don’t need to think about for now

I think part of it was that I always viewed my twitter as just another art portfolio, and was hyper cautious to only post art stuff and nothing weird that could make me look unemployable? But now I have a steady job doing what I love so I want to shake that instinct

is anyone else deathly afraid of interacting with total strangers on here? I always had this issue when I tried to get myself to use twitter, there’s always been something deeply uncomfortable about to me the idea of even being acknowledged by internet people

made this orangutan a little while ago, figured she's worth posting on here 🦧

hi bsky!

I wanna start using this to post & follow game dev stuff.

here's my old portfolio site, def in need of a refresh cbaldwin.art
