Exhibition feat. 1024 Architecture

Posted in exhibition with tags , on April 6, 2012 by Francois Wunschel

Not much computer related, but some of our architectural projects will be featured at the re-architecture exhibition at the Arsenal Pavillion in Paris, from 04.12.2012 to 08.31.2012, along with our friends from EXYZT, COLOCO and RAUMLABOR.

Damps a value, with an extra Velocity output.
10.5/10.6 (10.7?) universal, DL from the box.
Sample file included.

Mission:CMS at the CERN

Posted in experimental, video mapping with tags , on March 26, 2012 by Francois Wunschel

We’ve been contacted by the CERN to make an interactive mapping at the Large Hadron Collider CMS detector facility.
It will be a good opportunity to put our latest particle engine in action … trying to simulate hadron collisions, at 99.9% of the speed of light.

Here are some pictures showing our almost-finished 3d model and a few particles.

Fun with the flock

Posted in experimental with tags , , on March 22, 2012 by Francois Wunschel

I’m currently polishing a nice little flocking particles plugin.
Experimenting with behaviors such as Vortex, Wind, Go_to_target (mmmmm QCstructures input …).
The initial maths are lamely based on a Cinder tutorial, but I ended up recoding evrything myself, for the sake of learning.
The next goal is to distribute particles evenly on a 3d face (not just on points or edges, any pointers to code welcome btw).
The good thing is that the rendering is fast enough to render twice per frame, allowing to play it back in realtime on a 3d TV … that we just got at the office.

_1024_VectorField QCPlugin

Posted in QC plugins, quartz composer with tags , , on March 21, 2012 by Francois Wunschel

Nah, not finished/polished, but worth a quick try.
Samples an image and draws primitive lines according to RGB data.
A few controls and some randomness allow a few nice effects.
Hoping to find the time to push it a bit further…

10.5/10.6, sample file included.
DL from the box (sort the box by date to have it on top of the list)


Modeling the 1024′team

Modeling the team in 3d, using 3dstudio max.
Yep, this is us.
