Continued exploration with the JBox2D library. Finally got around to implementing the contactListener which supplies data on which objects are touching. The white flare-up occurs at every contact point.

One Year of Phlow-Magazine.com

Phlow-Magazine, our beloved outpost to free Creative-Commons licensed music from the netlabel scene, went one year on Sunday! Phlow writes regularly reviews upon netlabel-releases, and I do also contribute from time to time. The website is run by Moritz - mo. - Sauer, who keeps on caring for netmusic for several years now. The Phlow-Magazine is somehow the spinoff of the German blog Phlow.net, that mo. writes for several years now (and I also contributed lots to it).

The photograph was taken not far away from my apartment, but also a long time ago.

Since the start of the Phlow-Magazine the figures developed well, we almost got 1000 RSS-readers over the last 12 months. Okay, the numbers stuck at about 900, but we are confident to crack the magic one thousand still this year. Read more about it here. Mo. put a compilation out to celebrate the first birthday. Check it out.

1 000 000 Vertex - VBO using GPU

Launch the application

I will ask the geeks ?
How do you draw 1 Million vertex, 60 times for a second with processing ?
Befor i was responding that’s impossible… and i was so much frustred by that…

I’m really exited to have found the powerfull Opengl draw methode…
Stop using pushMatrix() and drawing methode…
I will use a metaphor : Imagine you want to send something to another country… here country are hardware and something are vertex.
How do you process it ? Like it’s explain in the processing manual is :
From the Cpu (processor) put a vertex in an aircraft, send it to the Gpu (graphic card), and send it to the screen…
Well, now if i want to send 1000 vertex… will you send it one by one… then you have an aircraft with 1000 places. And the trick go more far… You just need to send it one time, and after just call the graphic card to send it to the screen.
So like geek we are, we call the Gpu 1000 task to draw the buffer.That is call the VertexBufferObject…

Beautiful Metamorphosis Video Demonstrates Joys of Processing for Motion Graphics

Metamorphosis from Glenn Marshall on Vimeo.

Glenn Marshall is racking up fans on Vimeo with a new music video. He’s using Processing (site | CDM tag), but he’s built his own animation system and added lovely additive blending (that’s “nebulous” blending, as he puts it). Of course, this is what Processing excels at: you can assemble your own toolkit of creative tools, even without a lot of coding background. I bristle every time I hear people argue that tools like Adobe After Effects are “easy” while Processing is “hard”; easy might be a stretch for either one, but I think it can be a lot easier to build just what you need — and a massive, heavyweight motion graphics tool requires a lot of learning, too, in the reverse direction (top down instead of bottom up).

For his part, Glenn notes that:

  • it took about 4 hours to render at HD Ed.: Okay, damn — guess real-time is out of the question here, huh?
  • was made entirely using processing.org
  • i could have tweaked it manually to make it more intersting, but i like the fact it’s 100% generative
  • i can just about understand my own source code, let alone others, i’m still a noob programmer believe it or not.

So there you have it — this is the creation of a beginning programmer. And it looks absolutely gorgeous, I think probably because he focused on his artistic skills and design sense and wasn’t afraid to bring in some assets. He writes on his blog:

‘Butterfly’, my first film and the inspiration behind my whole direction as an artist (check out previous blog), is again the inspiration here. When making Butterfly I became obsessed with the wing patterns of the Monarch butterfly and how they looked like imaginary worlds within themselves, where butterflies lived and died according to a holistic, natural mechanism of nature.

These kind of ambitious concepts where difficult for me to implement back then within the practical limits of traditional 3d/2d software. So I wanted Metamorphosis be symbolic of my passing over into 100% programmed/generative computer art, where perhaps these kinds of ideas can reach more of their potential.

Click through video to Vimeo for HD-quality playback. Music by Boards of Canada … yeah, my one gripe is, if you’re doing work this beautiful, go find a musician to collaborate with. I think you’ll get plenty of volunteers! And there’s even Creative Commons-licensed music to discover, as well. Entirely too much ripping off going on, and it doesn’t have to be that way. (Hey, I can’t run the site Create Digital Music and not say something!)
