I wanted to play along. Here is my contribution to the 'Our first attempts all kinda look like this' group. Trying to learn the pros and cons of Sunflow as a raytracer within Processing (Thanks to Mark at Hipstersinc for the library). Here I am exhibiting a complete lack of control over the clipping plane.
And sure, its cliché to do jumbled-boxes-with-ray-tracer, but its just sooo damn sexy, how could I not!
One day, I will get back to Sunflow, but gonna wait a bit longer.
Built for Andromeda's Gates on Eurobricks. I went with a function over form mentality for this build, as the processing plant actually works. You can fill the hopper, then open the trapdoor to let gold down onto the conveyor belt, which in turn is used to fill the dump truck. See it in action here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=TM0qFY4JgKE

Quick idea for the Order Of Magnitude homepage sketched out on my custom wireframe template.

...of putting the house back together.
Things are moving along slowly at the house, but they are moving.
EVERYTHING has been removed from the house to be cleaned, except for a few oversized pieces of bedroom furniture that would have had to go out a window and be lowered, in order to remove them from the house (the way they came in years ago.....we have very narrow butterfly steps...only small pieces of furniture can be carried up the stairs.)
Those pieces were cleaned on site. The inside of the house has now been "de-sooted"! .
Larry has a meeting on Monday with the carpenter, plumber and electrician and hopefully he'll find out when they can start the priming and painting .
I want these people to start doing their thing!!!
Meanwhile, Larry has decided there's no reason he can't put in the new kitchen ceiling.
This is one project I'm glad to get done.
If you remember, Larry replaced the ceiling not too long ago.
He put in the drop ceiling tile system.
You can choose from a large variety of tile patterns.
The first time around I saw a pattern that looked and was described as beadboard.
I thought it was exactly what I wanted for my farmhouse kitchen ceiling.
Unfortunately, sometimes things look different in person.
After Larry installed it, we were rather disappointed.
It didn't look AT ALL as I had imagined it would look. Instead of beadboard, it looked like the inside of a corrugated shipping container.
Larry even volunteered to just scrap the tiles and order new ones if I wanted.
In the end I decided to just live with it for awhile.
Time's up!
I'm liking my choice this time 100%!
It's not even done yet, but I am liking this ceiling 100% better!!
Just the first of about 100 projects Larry will probably be tackling these next couple of months.!
Playing with ideas for generative type. These sketches use a modified (off-lattice) Eden growth model, with a bitmap of the type used as a constraint for growth. The different textures come from tweaking the growth rules. View this one high res to see the fine detail.
I had a great day today. I had a fair-size list of things that I wanted to get done today and managed to get them all (and a few others) done.
Onlookers often wonder why I put so much effort into some of the things I do. Sometimes I enjoy the process as much as I enjoy the finished product.
What you're seeing here is the slow-poaching method from David Chang's Momofuku. Essentially; slow-cooked in their shells, when cracked, are a perfectly poached egg with incredible textures and flavor.
I think eggs are so incredible. They are quite simple in appearance but are quite impressive when you start to break it down chemically.
When I get them right, the outer white is soft and creamy. The best part is the yolk when it becomes a gel. I find the yolk to be the best part about a cooked egg. When that golden yellow nucleus of of joy turns to gel and becomes spreadable, toast becomes a prized commodity.
The thing I like the best about this shot is how the water distorts the view of the eggs. In this case it actually makes them easier to see. That is what made me pick up my camera and get this shot.
