      <description>AR NFT Viewer In 2021, Sutu launched one of the first generative NFT series on the tezos blockshain, a 10,000 profile pic series called Neonz. I think this is one of the few great examples that demonstrates how to use web3 tech across platforms, while also being really cool art in its own right.
This was deveoped by the folks at Eyejack, I got on board to help them with some AR rendering effects for iOS and Android.</description>

      <description>My First Course In Fall 2021 I taught a class at Woodbury University in Burbank on some Advanced Programming techniques in Unity. This was in the Architecture School, aimed at non-computer Science majors who had already taken two semesters of Unity / gameplay programming. This was the first class I taught like this, and I learned a lot&amp;hellip; I made all the curriculum from scratch, and I&amp;rsquo;m pretty proud of it so with their permission I&amp;rsquo;ve made it freely available here.</description>

      <description>Real Time Unity short Film What if an AI could do the job of living your life better than you?
Neural engineer Dr. Wong has installed an experimental AI named BOB (“Bag of Beliefs”) into the nervous system of his 10-year-old daughter Chalice. Designed to guide Chalice through the challenges of growing up in a volatile world, BOB confronts more and more of the conflicts in Chalice’s life on her behalf, while Chalice grows increasingly irrelevant and escapist.</description>

      <description>Realtime Kinect visualizer experiments
Hooked up a Kinect Azure to Unity&amp;rsquo;s VFX Graph to explore some live realtime visuals for Lyell Roeder (Alt Fi) and Troy Everett - a Live improv ambient set
video   stills time delay Troy is always looping sounds and riffs from his viola. So I wanted to make a visual analog of that where we see multiple copies of the musicians over time, delayed by exactly a beat or something like that.</description>

      <description>Live interactive broadcast on TikTok We went all out to stream a virtual interactive Weeknd concert to TikTok. The Wave tapped into the real time chat API to allow interactive voting moments. Unlike all the other waves though, The Weeknd is too cool to actually wear a mocap suit, so we got an actor to be him, raising some strange quesitons about the future of virtual performance and likeness…
But we ended up raising $350K for Equal Justice Initiative through merch sales!</description>

      <description>John Legend live charity show
  After a brief coronavirus-induced break at Wave, we rented out a studio to set up a Yamaha electric grand piano and get the man JOHN LEGEND HIMSELF into the xsens suit to do a live performance.
We raised almost $10k for FREEAMERICA
 behind the scenes BOBBY was our mocap stand in for a lot of tests. And he CUT THE LINE at Whole Foods 1 hour before the set so that he could get John a WHOLE COOKED CHICKEN which we learned is the most important thing so that he can sing good.</description>

      <description>I decided to take my fractal rendering to the NEXT LEVEL by implementing a simple compute shader path tracer in unity.
Code Mostly Lifted from Three Eyed Games tutorial
Source Code on github
Temporal Reprojection But then I decided to reproject frames from the past into the current buffer to improve convergence, and make it pretty much realtime. Will add some more about this later

      <description>An Optimisaiton Journey. Client : Rap Research Lab
Rendering 5000 TextMeshPro meshes in 1ms for an interactive VR word cloud
I started with a naive 5000 TextMeshPro gameobjects, which could take 30ms CPU and GPU, and made a new system that took 1ms CPU and GPU and still looked dope.
Functionality
Interactive 3D visualization of words used in a corpus of rap lyrics (See Part 1)
Interface Features
 Left Thumb button transitions from Globe View to Word Cloud view Right hand controller has a “laser” which intersects with words to select them Clicking word with laser transports user to the word Words can also be selected with Right Hand controller Interaction point Selecting word with Right hand shows usage over time of the word and 10 similar words Timeline View Pressing both grips allows user to scale and rotate the word cloud.</description>

      <description>Along with fractals, I also got really into growth algorithms, especially making them run in realtime. It seems like a perfect intersection of design and art with computer science and math.
Here are various realtime versions of some interesting growth algorithms I have seen over the years.
 Mesh based Mesh Splitting / Spring and attractive forces  Diffusion-Limited Aggregation   Voxel based Gray-Scott Anisotropic Dendritic Solidification  


Mesh Based These involve splitting a manifold (1d or 2d surface) and then moving the nodes around in a higher dimensional space to minimise overlap</description>

      <description>Free VR Fractal Visualizer &amp;amp; Manipulation Software for Vive
  Ṛta is the principle of natural order which regulates and coordinates the operation of the universe and everything within it. In the hymns of the Vedas, Ṛta is described as that which is ultimately responsible for the proper functioning of the natural, moral and sacrificial orders.
I am excited to share the next version of the FORM fractal visualizer, using a new compute shader surface calculation and rendering architecture.</description>

      <description>realtime reactive VJ software

Gravity Current&amp;rsquo;s Synesthesia In June 2015 I worked with Gravity Current on their new Synesthesia software for live reactive visuals. For this project I created two &amp;ldquo;Scenes&amp;rdquo; that played at a couple of shows in Austin:
Looper&amp;rsquo;s night @ Strange Brew Featured my reaction diffusion system ported to C++ OpenGL with a render-to-texture feedback loop for simulation. This was a sweet event not only because of all the talented musicians, but we were able to get MIDI data from the loop pedals into Synesthesia and trigger different layers based on which loops were going.</description>

      <description>First realtime mobile 3D scanner

This product was a fully mobile device (box) that could do real-time 3D scanning totally on the device. No cloud or offline processing.
Back at UT I joined a research group called the UT Perception lab. There we worked on realtime 3D reconstruction techniques using GPU processing. I helped implement Kinect Fusion in CUDA, a CUDA raytracer for scanning volume visualizaiton and other 3D reconstruction techniques using heightmaps on manifolds.</description>

      <description>Low-level OpenGL driver development

video: isosurface extraction and realtime rendering of a shit ton of triangles on a xeon phi cluster (no GPUs!)
In 2015 I contracted for Intel&amp;rsquo;s visualization department on an OpenGL driver optimised for many-core intel supercomputer clusters. With that many CPUs, you can treat the network as a GPU, with each core doing some work in a Tile-Based Deferred Rendering (TBDR) pipeline. This was built on the Mesa3D graphics library and greatly improved frame rates on certain systems compared to the built in software renderer in Mesa3D (llvmpipe).</description>
