Aeolian dune simulation (made in 2017) for #MeerMittwoch:

The images show a screenshot of the JavaScript application to create the simulation and some Houdini renders of exported height fields. The sim itself had 5 macro params to control the behavior of the interactive deposit/erosion/transportation process. It supported tileable patterns, customizable seed terrain (images) and ran realtime at ~30fps. The profile (cross-section) visualization was important because the tool was intended to create traction patterns for footwear...

Had to debug a weird #Houdini color issue yesterday. Turns out that if you're using a custom #OCIO config file without file rules, Houdini will apply its own set. And as of Houdini 21 those are no longer "OpenEXR is scene linear". It seems to apply the file rules from its default ocio file which assigns "Linear Rec.709 (sRGB)" if it exists and only uses scene_linear if it doesn't. So if you add a space of that name, suddenly all existing scenes will look different than before 😱

Tonight (11/26/2025 at 6pm EST), I'm going to try to finish up the laser project that I started last week. This time we'll add some volumetric effects to try to make the scene a lot more dynamic.

I've decided to finish an environment project I've started a loong time ago and has been collecting dust ever since. Here's some fresh water sim test.

Tonight (11/19/2025 at 6pm EST) I'm going to try to create some lasers using some of the new tools in #Copernicus. Last time I wasn't so successful, but I'm hoping that this time we'll come up with something much better.

Got around to making this pattern exporter hda inside #houdini. It has two parts, first there is a node that sets up the number of panels, as well as how much overlap there is per panel.

The next node then sets up the export, including the cutting lines on each side of the paper.

(Am making this crop top for my sibling, I'd re-created the pattern in houdini but had to figure out a way to export it)

Tonight (11/12/2025 at 6pm) we're going to try to work with some fluid sims, and make slightly sticky collisions. I've had a couple of questions about this on the Discord, so it would be worth trying out. Hope to see you then!

Tomorrow night (11/05/2025 at 6pm EST), we're going to have Kate Xagoraris as a guest. She's worked on a couple of really interesting HDA toolkits for star catalogs and proteins. It should be a great chat with a lot of science nerdiness!
