Scatter Brain Matter, or the Evolution of Mankind

I have released my latest short film on Vimeo. After serious discussions around Thanksgiving, I added a subtitle to the work once known as "Mind Matter".

Art Speaks Out

Two of my works have been selected to be part of the "Art Speaks Out" program that is put together by ikonoTV that will be shown as part of the Global Climate Art Festival, scheduled to coincide with the UN Climate Change Conference Paris 2015. I am happy that my animation "Seeing Red" and my video "City.Flow()" will once again be on display.

More Dancing Particles

So there. Took forever to get some stuff to work, particle expressions can be very finicky. But they are starting to behave the way I envisioned.

Geeknote: created the movie from a Maya playblast using Shotcut on my MacBook as this weekend I did not feel like firing up my big machine with the Adobe Stuff. Very basic but useful program!

Dancing Particles

Played with nParticles a bit in an attempt to create frozen motion but created this sequence in the process:
 

I used a Motion Capture (MoCap) example that came with Maya years ago and made it emit particles. Very simple. Find better MoCap data I must!

xGen Experiment

Not really have had time to create new work recently. For my classes I have been experimenting with Maya's xGen. Today I made this to test duplication of animated geometry with it.
