top down view from within the unity editor, showing a black and blue visual of a level. The level is in the shape of the notorious octagonal prison layouts. It looks posterized and stylistic, because only the navmesh components (blue) are visible and the level itself is invisible.

Sometimes the coolest looking visuals appear out of nowhere.
This is a screengrab from in the unity editor. NavMesh being aesthetic af

A sunny day at Manhattan Beach State Park, OR. Superimposed on the photo are Google's valiant attempts at translating the beach plants into English.

My new favorite thing at the coast: Letting Google attempt to translate the beach plants into English.

wuhuuuuuu

I replied about this last night but was probably incoherent and this is related to one of my favorite papers so perhaps I will make a 🧪 thread. Those little square images right there are a "basis function" for a bitmap image of whatever size that square is /

so sick!!!

(PDF) To Take Hold of Space: Isovists and Isovist Fields PDF | The environment is defined as a collection of visible real surfaces in space. An isovist is the set of all points visible from a given vantage... | Find, read and cite all the research you need ...

Oh yes, you‘re right. This one should work: www.researchgate.net/publication/...

is asynchronous text based forum roleplaying still alive and well or is it too cringe for the zillenials?? is this relegated to those of us 25+? are there no youths dedicated to the longevity of the art????

Book cover of the anthropology book ‚How Forests Think‘ by Eduardo Kohn showing a villager from the Runa in Ecuador‘s Amazon lookig up a tree.

‚How Forests Think’ by Eduardo Kohn greatly influenced my thinking this year and changed how I see and interact with animals, from ants in my backyard to cows in the alps.

Screenshot from a scientific paper on Isovist fields. Two pictures of the same object. The object is a 3D visualisation of an isovist field. Underneath the text: A Minkowski model of the isovists along a given path in a given environment [in this case, Michael Graves's Benacerraf house addition (Gandelsonas, 1972, page 75)].

Very often we look at Isovist fields from above on a flat building plan to get an overview of the sight-lines. Cool to see a 3D visualisation of one, as a real object.

I will write you if I get it, then you have to tell me everything about tokyo haha!

okay:) thank you!!

University of Tokyo has a lot of newly opened positions for lecturers in art and design and I’m thinking of applying. So my questions would be: Have you studied/worked at an art uni in tokyo? Do you have friends who work there? Can you tell me a bit about the vibe of design universities in tokyo? :)

“backrooms” and “liminal spaces” are the defining horror format for a generation who saw the facades of capitalism crumble to reveal the emptiness within

By far my favorite part of South Korean elections: election night graphics. SBS television station kills it EVERY. TIME. They play these clips all night and they get more and more unhinged and creative as the night goes on.

A graph titled "Cost of Transport" showing the relationship between body weight (in kilograms) and energy consumption for distance traveled (calories per gram per kilometer) for various animals and machines. It highlights that a person on a bicycle ranks first in efficiency.

A person on a bicycle is by far the most energy-efficient among animals and machines per distance traveled relative to body weight. The bicycle is magic.
