Hey!

Do you make stuff? Are you doing threads about your work in progress (WIP)?

Any stuff.

Software's my jam, but I follow people who make lace, cabinets, music, drawings, food, articles & books, videos, photos, paintings, boats and planes model and real, people who make anything, to be honest, anything but hate.

I like it when you share the WIP, and I am not the only one who does.

In fact, following along folks as they work is often one of the most pleasing parts of my day.

Show us!

@GeePawHill One of my pastime projects for the past few years has been a raytracing renderer. More precisely, a physically based, spectral, path tracing renderer. In this scene there are two white lights, a glass sphere, and a glass prism. The rainbow cast on the floor is an emergent phenomenon, caused by the dispersion of light based on the wavelength in the prism.

@GeePawHill One of the big joys in computer graphics is that bugs and implementation problems can result in entertaining pictures. Here are a few outtakes over the years!
