Before the vibes fade away, I wrote a blog post about my experience at API8 :

I didn’t plan for screens above 60Hz (stupid me) so the result varies by machine. But maybe that’s the point? 😅

There’s no trick: the physics engine runs in real time.
I record the world matrices every frame, then remap the timeline during playback.
Sometimes it's linear. Sometimes it’s a jump, a loop, a slowdown.

Two timelines cross: the hidden now, and the visible past.

So this year I wrote "DREVERSED" for API8, a small demoscene-friendly party hosted by Paris 8 University.

It’s built in Lua, with the #HARFANG3D engine.
Each sequence simulates physics in the background while the previous one is being played - backwards, warped, stretched.

10 years ago, someone on IRC dropped a line that stuck with me: “You can’t reverse a physics engine”

OK, physics is about causality, forces, entropy, and reversing that is beyond the limit of sciences. But you can rewind animation, so I made a demo about it :

🇫🇷 la demoscene est désormais reconnue au patrimoine culturel immatériel en France !

Je suis tellement contente de voir ce projet aboutir même si je sais que ce n'est que le début du chemin vers la préservation de notre patrimoine numérique !

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

The image is a screenshot of a tweet from Brandon Bradford (@BrandonLBradfor
). The tweet reads: "Deporting Americans without due process then saying they no longer get due process because they aren’t in America means no one has rights, FYI. Nightmare scenario."

Le Pen, Sarkozy: il n’y a pas de «République des juges», mais des juges de la République

Le jugement Le Pen et les réquisitions du procès Sarkozy-Kadhafi ont en commun d’avoir libéré en quelques jours la parole déchaînée d’un populisme contre l’État de droit. En creux pointe un profond désir du retour des privilèges et de la fin de l’égalité devant la loi.

Le rabbin d’Orléans a été frappé, insulté et mordu, car il est juif et cela devant son fils de 9 ans.

J’ai une pensée pour lui, son fils, leur famille et toute la communauté juive.

La recrudescence des actes antisémites est insupportable et doit être activement combattu.

ENJOY!

Pixel art of a land exhaling its last breath. Stone, a skeletal hand clutching at a bruised sky, rises in fractured defiance. A circular tower, a hollowed eye socket, surveys a kingdom of cracked earth, thirsty for a memory of rain. Twisted trees, the petrified veins of the world, claw at the fading light. The ground is a map of forgotten sorrows, etched with the calligraphy of drought. Beyond the crumbling walls, water breathes - a liquid mirror reflecting the sun’s final, molten gold. Clouds, bruised plums and fading roses, weep color onto the horizon. An archway, a mouth whispering secrets, frames a sliver of land - a tongue reaching for the water’s embrace. It’s a promise of elsewhere, a fragile bridge between what was and what might be. The stone itself seems to be dissolving into the light, becoming less structure and more a sigh against the coming night. The whole composition is a held breath, a story told in the language of decay. The image has a CRT filter applied.Pixel art of a land exhaling its last breath.

Les universités françaises en avis défavorable

Après la salve d’évaluations négatives concernant plusieurs #universités françaises, le Hcéres, institution mise en cause, plaide le couac administratif. Mais dans un contexte budgétaire difficile, syndicats et personnels manifestent mardi devant le ministère.
