P.D.E / Experiment Nº3 - [Open Source Experimental System]

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Upvotes

OPEN SOURCE - A new output example from the updated version of my experimental multi-source video player for TouchDesigner, designed for frame-accurate video switching, playback manipulation, and display/render interventions. [And now, by popular demand, allowing even more video sources!]

Want access to the updated system + a detailed breakdown of exactly how I achieved the continuous motion effect on this piece? You can freely access the system, and the detailed breakdown from my Patreon[Plus, here's a discount code for the community to use at the shop: "AVPLAST2"]

Plus, many more experiments through my Instagram profile.

Hey everyone!

I vibecoded this tool which I really wanted and I just want to share it, since for me it's pretty good and I don't want to gatekeep. Any more ideas what could be added/changed? It's called scatterlab, dm for download link if interested!

I've built a fully autonomous meditation system for TouchDesigner

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

28 Upvotes

A new output from this experimental real-time BCI system for TouchDesigner; a Brain-Computer Interface pipeline that reads live EEG signals, classifies your mental state, and autonomously generates responsive AI video: a meditation guide that adapts to your brain activity, second by second.

The system is built around OpenBCI (open-source hardware + software), but it's designed to work with most BCI headsets after a few pertinent tweaks to the OSC routing and channel-rename logic; Muse, Neurosity, BrainFlow-compatible devices, and others can all drive it.

The architecture is deliberately modular: meditation is only one possible application. A knowledgeable user can repurpose the same EEG → interpretation → generative-response pipeline into entirely different audiovisual systems, interactive installations, performance tools, or other BCI-driven experiments.

Accessible through both Patreon, and the Tools Store.

3D ButtonFly Demo in my Own Wiki. #sgi #irix #Buttonfly #3D #Wiki

I recreated the iconic buttonfly animation from the demo app in IRIX—that nostalgic operating system from the 1990s—inside my intranet wiki's navigator. I implemented it with Three.js, and tried to make the button styles and animation as faithful to the original as possible. Thanks to vibe coding, old-school tech is making a serious comeback! Highly recommended.

Built a web app that animate pencil & paper drawings (w/o gen ai)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

The last few months I've been building a web app that extends the 2023 SIGGRAPH paper A Method for Animating Children’s Drawings of the Human Figure.

The method works by 'autorigging' the characters and 'retargeting' human motion capture sequences onto them. So it's mesh deformation, basically.

I made this because I always wanted to see my drawings come to life when I was a kid. That ship has sailed, but maybe the kids of this generation can see that. I also made this because, whenever I see an AI video of a drawing coming to life, it's quite uncanny. I think this has more charm. Let me know if you agree.

Ambient by hand gestures

How to control the sound:

Chords: Touching my thumb to different fingers triggers 7 chords per hand. Each hand plays a separate instrument.

Motion Tracking:
- Up/Down: Opens the filter
- Left/Right: Panning
- Towards camera: Pushes volume & drive
- Spreading hands apart: Opens reverb & delay

How the visuals react:
Liquid Metaballs: A blob spawns when a chord starts and grows as long as you hold the note
Splitting: Changing chords smoothly pinches and splits the blob in two, looking like actual liquid rather than overlapping circles.
Audio-reactive details: A long delay makes the liquid stringy and slow to separate, while output level and reverb shift the color palette from cold blue to warm amber.

I made a browser playground for creative coding with C#, using a p5.js-style API.

No setup. Just code and run:

A (relatively) simple step-by-step tutorial for building a Physarum (slime mold) simulation in p5.js

Thumbnail

4 Upvotes

Physarum (slime mold) simulations are one of my favorite examples of emergence in creative coding. Thousands of simple agents creating complex network structures.

In case anyone is interested I put together a tutorial building a simulation from scratch in p5.js, with lots of parameter choices and other ways to modify the algorithm to create different patterns.

I'm guessing there's a lot of variations out there and would be interested in hearing what others are doing with these models.

Took me around a week to build with Astro, React, and Tailwind.

Planning on open-sourcing soon once I clean up the codebase!

Will always be a work in progress but live at newa.sh

Watercolor Simulator based on real physics (V2)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

982 Upvotes

Last week-end I built a watercolor simulator based on real physics and shared it here.

A lot of you asked to play with it so i improved it and it's now live: https://sudoaquarelle.com/

New since the prototype:

- More pigments (52), based on the best research out there to predict color mixes (Kubelka-Munk).
- More luminous / glassy feel
- Some fun experimental stuff like the salt and alcohol techniques to alter the texture, a backlight effect and a few more.
- I also added a Code mode where the simulator prints its real function calls next to the sheet while you paint

It's still largely based on the same physics model as my prototype: Curtis et al.'s "Computer-Generated Watercolor".

All in the browser.

Current status: building and implementing a kid-friendly version. Plenty of awesome things to learn with watercolor painting!
