5/52: Million point sculptures: interactive toy written in Processing

Thursday, January 24th, 2008

A while ago I played with some mathemagical things called Million Point Sculptures. I was wanting to go back to these some day, so I’ve used a programming/visualization/interaction environment called Processing to make an interactive Million Point Sculpture toy. I added a few things like colours and weirdo line mode and I love some of the results…

Sadly I can’t post the Processing interactive applet currently due to browser/haircut issues (that is coming shortly), but for now have some images that came out of the applet I made…

4/52: more Soup

Monday, January 7th, 2008

Things have been a bit delayed due to holiday madness and illness and generally the world exploding…

I’ve added more things to Soup, the film development database site. In particular:

  • a howto on shooting redscale film (some redscale examples at flickr)
  • a development timer applet which makes noises at you - aid memoire. (To see it running, do a search and then click on a time in the results table.) Applet source is on cookbook wiki.
  • added data on Microphen and HC developers to soup database
