well. The tree sequenze was very neat, would love to see that in a demo. ~_~ in REALTIME no lame WMV ;Q

pretty cool, although I didn't "cum everywhere", sadly.

Nice... Now could we please have the executable? Having only one version of the demo kinda defeats the purpose of a "generative film".
rulez added on the 2002-12-08 20:41:16 by noid noid
respect!
rulez added on the 2002-12-08 21:21:34 by _ _
looks nice, but it'll defer judgement until the executable is out
added on the 2002-12-08 21:24:23 by jazzman jazzman
that's some hot generated geometry!

dear matvei & al. - maybe you missed this?
"- - to render a version of the 3 minute film at 100 frames per second PAL resolution took about 8 hours."

just let mr statix make a realtime version in peace if he's so inclined, he even said he'd release the source.
and when he does that, if you rip the algorithm, at least please use it for something else, ok? I'm not looking forward to seeing this same tree 100 times next year :)

rather nice. too bad the wma quality is so bad :/

Hmm,.. generative art? Interesting. He could perhaps release the generating source or binary too, to be complete. If it would be realtime, would be a dream, but I just want too much...

proof positive that 'generative art' is not necessarily 'throw in some pictures from google with noise on top'-kind of thing.
