Hi Bluesky!
With the sudden closure of Jumpship, I'm looking for a new role
I'm looking for anywhere I can make beautiful things with code, my ideal role would be a mix of graphics programming, technical art, and gameplay programming (or anything else interactive)

I've written an article for my webpage on how the raymarcher for The Gunk was made! jarllarsson.github.io/gen/gunkraym...

The atomic structure of fractals
One of the tedious aspects of modeling SDFs with raw shader code is adjusting the position of objects, so I'm adding transform gizmos into my tool
They write changes directly to the shader on disk, so I don't need an external object hierarchy

This one's from 2020, one again created entirely with a raymarching shader

This time I'll talk about seamless camera movement...

Our new Radiozoa jewelry collection and Patreon sculptures build on our work designing structures with anisotropic centroidal Voronoi diagrams. Here’s a deep dive thread on what that means and how we generate these forms.

Let's post some old work with a little behind-the-scenes
This loop, Fractal Polycephaly, won the 2019 Revision Demoparty animated GIF competition
It's rendered entirely within a raymarching shader, there's no polygonal geometry
