The Unreal Engine is amazing. I help architects and engineers use it, or Enscape, to render 3d buildings from Revit…[Read more]

Here’s another one exhibiting the hyper 3D effect that also goes flat when you pause it.

There are tons of trippy computer-generated “deep dives” into mind-bending fractal worlds. They use the rules of perspective to simulate depth in 2D but the example in the top post does something I can’t identify to go beyond those rules, understood and used by painters in the Renaissance until today, to depict objects in space accurately. I will…[Read more]

The sisters sit down for a long (1 hour +) interview that reaffirms why they have such a fanatical fan base. They are a wonderful combination of humility combined with intelligence and animation. They talk about many things, but for me their writing process was the most interesting part. They say it’s much easier to write lyrics in English, which…[Read more]
