reverse smoke

Nikolaus Gradwohl2015-01-13T06:34:24+00:00

For this animation I rendered a blender smoke simulation and reverted the frames before combining them to a video to make it look like the smoke gets sucked back into the deformed cube

Wrong as Anyone Else

I've drawn a quick sketch of my volca synths while waiting for a download. Using black ink and Copic markers

new Song - Gap Between Idea and Action

This track evolved from a recorded volca bass jam session. Except for the bass line all synths are softsynths from bitwig-studio

displace curve mesh

Nikolaus Gradwohl2015-01-05T06:09:59+00:00

For this animation I used a blender circle and a cycles material with an animated displacement texture. The separated faces in the first halve of the animation are a wired result of the subdivide checkbox - not really what I expected from a function called "subdivide" but I really like it

oculus rift experiment 3 - labyrinth

Nikolaus Gradwohl2015-01-02T05:49:22+00:00

For this oculus rift experiment I used the labyrinth generator I wrote a while ago and turned it into a little game. You have to run/drive through a labyrinth and find a yellow post. If you hit it a new labyrinth is generated. Originally I wanted to use the WASD keys to run through the labyrinth but I switched to a usb-gamepad, because its easier for the players to navigate the labyrinth when they hold the controller in their hands instead of having to search for the keyboard.
