Found this fun practice in 2017 when I started learning #Houdini. Everything was procedurally modelled&animated with vex wrangles (including a minimum IK solver for the tentacles) in a SOP solver. Never had the time to push it further but might still be interesting to share.

super cool, it reminds me this I think it was made with H as well

This was one of my fav of all time! actually mine was inspired by the one you posted (made by Maxime Causeret iirc) too difficult as a Houdini beginner's first attempt 😂

Felt so sorry for that little arm that couldn't reach in 0:09. But the animation is great!

Wow didn't know that thanks for the recommendation!

How i can put hand on this practice tutorial..?? plz help

Lewis_Orton3 years ago

There's no tutorial, I was just fiddling with wrangles and sop solver for fun😂

It's the lovechild of Pixeljunk Eden and Noby Noby Boy.

This is a beautifully done simulation in #Houdini can’t wait to play with all the new mpm solver stuff! Bravo SideFX #VFX #animation #3d #cgi

A significant development for users Linear optimisation has now been added to planner toolset! This comes in addition to the existing non-linear solver Those familiar with the FPL problem in linear optimisation might notice that this Javascript implementation might well be surprisingly fast

Just tried the new Cloth Dynamics solver in Blender 5.2 Alpha #geometrynodes with interactive fern foliage! Still missing self-collision for now, and I had to jump inside the node group to tweak a few things manually, but it’s great to see this system exist now... #b3d #blender

I know we like to be the underdog in Baltimore, but it might be time to embrace being the top dog and everything that comes with it. Shoutout to Joey Malinski for creating this. I had no idea it was coming. Ravens community is full of talent.

Still can’t get over how fucked it was of the solver to intentionally use a bad hologram to trick Uzi so she’d fall for its legitimate Khan & N ones

Every time I found myself in an unfamiliar situation in my cricketing career, I never let it get me down. Instead, I adapted to it by learning. Early in my career, the T20 format was introduced. I trained hard for it and learnt to play it. Learning made me confident in something I had never done. It is this very habit of learning that made me confident enough to play all the formats in different conditions around the world. The learning didn’t stop even after I retired. I learnt to be a coach and a mentor. That’s why I like what I have done with the people at CoinDCX : India Ka Crypto Coach. We share a common belief “Learning is the only way to succeed.” #ConfidentCryptoStart #Ad

Late to the game, but I finally took the GitHub Copilot app for a spin tonight… wow. In a few prompts & few minutes, I had a self-solving 3D Rubik’s Cube visualizer + solver with smooth animations, speed controls, and GitHub contribution graph mode 🤯

It looks like this in VR. The point would be for the VR avatars of players to be controlled by combining both physics animation and a multi-pass IK solver. Physics animation alone won't be good (disjointed body feeling, loss of proprioception and control).

Grant Cardone explains why you'll never reach the next level until you lose something you love. "You have to want it, you gotta be willing to leave everything you have" "It started for me when I was 25, with my drug addiction I had to leave my friends, the girlfriend, everything that was comfortable, the bars, the clubs, the house I lived in, everything, I had to walk away from it all" "I have never had success in my life, not a next level success, without leaving something I loved"

Dads deserve a raise 😭😂 From problem-solver to entertainer to “fix everything” expert… all in one day. Some roles don’t come with a salary— but they carry the biggest impact.

Basic trigonometric IK, but it's satisfying when it finally works. Previously I wrote an overly complicated position-based solver, but it was buggy and wasn't worth it 🥲

I had to start over learning to walk because Airbus had the power to intimidate by threatening my job to take a harmful risky covid jab that I didn’t want. My ability to walk again was in doubt. It took a lot of therapy & practice but I am lucky to not be in a wheelchair forever

Prototyping can be fun in Figma and a nightmare when you are new to it. As a self-taught designer, I had to figure everything out the hard way. I thought I had seen it all when I was learning Adobe Photoshop back then in 2012. I discovered Figma four years ago and decided to explore the tool since I had been using Adobe XD and Sketch to create some mockups. When I discovered Figma, I created the prototype I shared in my last post just because it popped into my head when I was in the bathroom 😂. I rushed out and decided to try it immediately, more like a freestyle thing and was never intended to be a real product but could be modified into becoming one if the need arises. But many misunderstood the point, which was using the video to convey a message to other young designers never to skip the process, else you will create the wrong MVP. Another design made with love in Figma #figma #uxdesign #uidesign

For my last post of the sabbatical I thought I'd share a simplicial fluid solver I implemented using Houdini's new linear solver. Based off the paper: "Stable, Circulation-Preserving, Simplicial Fluids" Hip file here:

I never really got to explain this journal clearly so I’m going to start being transparent, this journal was gifted to me in October of last year when I started to learn how clothes are made. I decided to document everything I’ve been learning by writing and putting Polaroids in it. I’ve carried this with me ever since and what I have started doing is scanning the pages and putting them online for anyone else learning about clothing. I’m grateful for who I’ve met and what I’m continuously learning. I feel like I need to share it with you guys.

Summer Bronya I was editing this model when I thought about making an image like this, but in the process I decided to make it animated. I also tried a new way of doing physics for hair/clothes I couldn't add something animated for the background, sorry I'll try to practice
