  • Prism 2024 print

    Prism 2024 print

    I had a go at printing Prism 2024, and I’m happy with the results. The image was rendered as A1 300dpi (9933 × 7016 pixels, 69.689928 Megapixel). It was printed as Print+Frame Deluxe (Canvas textured interchangeable print with frame) via posterfactory.com.au .

  • Node City Sunset

    Node City Sunset

    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. ..

  • Node Ribbons

    Node Ribbons

    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…

  • Swirly things

    Swirly things

    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…

  • Remastering

    Remastering

    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.

  • Nodes and Rays

    Nodes and Rays

    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.

  • Strands into the void

    Strands into the void

    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.

  • Bottles and curves

    Bottles and curves

    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?

  • My door is ajar

    My door is ajar

    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.

  • Hello world!

    Hello world!

    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.
