Thanks! 🙏 Yeah, I first saw it as a blooming flower, then as a space nebula I'm flying through backwards while rotating but I can also totally see a morphing eye! 👍 I love those polymorphic things 🤩

I really like the effects, can you share a little about your process on how you make it?
@thomashelzle12 күн бұрын
It's a particle animation in Tooll3 that is driven by the generative soundtrack I created in Bitwig Studio. A custom noise force with symmetry allows for the mirrored look. An also customised depth of field effect does the blurring/bokeh. Otherwise it's mostly fiddling with the parameters until it feels right... ;-)

How many particle are they 🤯?
@thomashelzle28 күн бұрын
4 million. Running in realtime on my Laptop with a GeForce 3070. This isn't a screencapture though, it's rendered out as a video and due to encoding takes around ~20 minutes on the same laptop in 4k with 60fps for the 18,000 frames of the full version: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/laqkpdKBupmWnYU.html
Ha! Quite the kaleidoscopic experience - Nice! :-)

awesome , Do You play with VCVrack?
@thomashelzleАй бұрын
VCVrack is actually in the track, but only as an effect this time around :-) I'm using a kick drum from Atlas and the percussion is actually AAS String Studio played by the Pigments step sequencer on one track and the Spiral Reaktor ensemble on another. The percussion is stretched extremely with Paul Stretch and then going through VCVrack and the fantastic Cytomic CF100 filter for the ambient wooshing sound. I use that filter a lot. Valhalla Vintage Verb for reverb + a bit of Valhalla Delay. But some of my animations are purely VCVrack for the sound.

When I try to discern shapes as if these lines were clouds I see many surreal or dreamlike scenes that come together to make another image. Are these lines generated from an image or is one side drawn and reflected? Or are these being generated mathematically?
@thomashelzleАй бұрын
It is all created mathematically. 8 million tiny particles are objected to a "noise" force that influences their movement. That noise is a pseudo-fractal - the same noise repeated at different scales, in this case 9 times. This creates the complexity. I programmed into this force that it is reflected along the x axis. So the force is symmetrical, but not the particles, which makes it much more natural. And yeah, sinking into these and let the mind wander is what I love to do as well... :-)

Thanks! As for a one hour or longer version: That never occured to me. The realtime version in Tooll3 is in itself endless, so in theory it would be possible to create a longer video. Hm... Let me think about this :-)

You should! It's really amazing. One can do a lot with very little nodes - on the opposite end of VVVV gamma. It feels a bit like Houdini in that with a very clear flow. HLSL and C#, open source and a very friendly and helpful community on Discord. tooll.io

So gravity would be caused by something penetrating the "universe"
@ZeddzdedАй бұрын
Or maybe the sun is halfway in our universe and halfway in another.
@MDR0Ай бұрын
The fuck are you on about. Gravity is the attraction force between two masses.
@ZeddzdedАй бұрын
@MDR0 the current theory is that our univers is a bubble with the galaxies spanning the outer layer. So yes you are correct. Each wave is a sun . But in there, using this image, each sun could also be causing gravity waves in another "universe"

Hm - I have to contemplate what that would mean for a particle force... Would be cool to have several "bubbles" touching and interchanging particles... Noted ;-)

@thomashelzle I just realized that would bring us back to overlapping multiverse that resembles decohedrons. I hate how uncomfortable my realizations just made me. Because that word popped into my head. I googled what it was and that's about what I was envisioning in my head. I know I've heard it my origional thought was mandala. and I knew that wasn't right cause that's a flower.

Sometimes the rotation seems clockwise, sometimes counterclockwise. And im quite sure ive seen both rotations at the same time! Anyway, its very, very, very, very very very very smooth! Good job!

You are correct - that is one of the things I implemented, a switch between all rotating in the same direction as it was originally and each point rotating in a random direction with a random seed to change the variations... :-)
