I found this city scape that I designed earlier in 2023. It just needed a bit of work to set the mood and be able to get some decent images rendered.

Over the New Year break, I experimented with geometry node spirals and sound design. The video loop was rendered in Blender EEVEE. The sound track was designed in Ardour, and probably a spagetti of connections with ZynAddSubFX via Patchance which does not save well in its entirety so I’m not that sure since the time…

I had another go at glass and caustics. In my mind I imaged that Blender Cycles can do a glass prism effect without any special workarounds, with the current version of 2.8. Wrong. On the upside, I walked away with some fun renders. Edit 2024.01.15 Later I had another go, with simple prim shapes and…

Every now and then we revisit old work and add something new to it. In this instance, I started to remaster material originally designed in 2017. Intersections was a series of vector based black and white line art. It features repeating line patterns with slight variations, that when overlapped, causes a larger pattern to emerge.

Blender geometry nodes make generating arrays of objects relatively quick. Compositing nodes add that extra wow to the whole scene. Applying both make generating colourful video clips a breeze.

What can you say about psychedelic looking convergent lines? If you tweak the light sources, material reflectivity, and perspective then you will get something like this. Strands into the void, or out of the void, whichever you prefer.

Fast moving consumer goods such as beverages are commonly packaged in bottles. Showing a bottle that represents a product is fundamental to promoting and selling such products. There’s no mystery there. But where do those perfect and stylised images come from?

I have a problem with a door, and it is my door. Specifically, my office door bores me, and so I decided to decorate it with something eye catching. I logged into Officeworks and ordered a customised print of Intersections2. The dimensions of the print are close enough to cover most of the door surface.

IGSIFY images are mostly abstract and vague. They can be transformed without compromising their essence. It may not matter how you stretch, flip, layer, or remix them. For these reasons they make ideal backgrounds for promotional collateral or decorating.
