Moving up one dimension into Apollonian sphere-packing using POPs. I put together an implementation based on Kean Walmsley’s code, which itself is built on Ron Peikert’s original work from his paper “The Fractal Dimension of the Apollonian Sphere Packing.”

A quick study exploring Apollonian circle-packing using POPs. Point computation is still brute force in CPU... so no POPs were harmed in that process ;)

Playing with trails using POPs. I aimed to create forms that thicken and shift toward blue as they accelerate.

#genuary Day 29: Grid-based graphic design.

For today's prompt I had to think of my friend Roy Gerritsen's grid-based systems. So, here a poster (I'm no graphic designer 😅) inspired by his awesome work.

#genuary Day 24: Geometric art - pick either a circle, rectangle, or triangle and use only that geometric shape.

I chose rectangles, with varying tilts and slightly altered vertex positions.

Zooming out spiral. The value assigned to π is inconsequential if one uses bounded functions with a time variable.

#genuary Day 11: Impossible day - Try to do something that feels impossible for you to do.

I never attempted to build a real-time 3D fluid simulation with volumetric rendering. Lots to improve, but very happy with today's result!😀

I did not consider that the number in data types such as vec3 or vec2 count since those are not numbers in the arithmetic sense, but one could argue that that breaks the rule "no other number allow in your code" if taken in the extreme literal sense.😅
