The bubbles on top of the water I'm washing my wild clay in are looking a bit like a Turing pattern and i want to know why
Turing patterns that spontaneously appeared when I was playing with video feedback a few years ago
@MLE_online niceeee you choreograph sounds with it afterward? or was the texture of the video being affected by a patch in real time.
@ek yea, i added those later
@MLE_online I learned about this kind of things while studying reaction diffusion textures, courtesy of Wikin and Kass' SIGGRAPH paper: https://dl.acm.org/doi/epdf/10.1145/127719.122750. I'd never heard about Turing's work until then.
@MLE_online I never heard of Turing patterns before. This is awesome.
@obot50549535 I learned about them from playing with video feedback. I posted a video of this pattern that appeared in my video on twitter and someone told me it's a turing pattern
@MLE_online maybe this is one of the chemical reactions that inspired Turing patterns
@MLE_online Spontaneous symmetry breaking. Like the crown that forms after a droplet hits water but with more dimensions.
@MLE_online kind of reminds me of reticulated film when you develop but don't keep a consistent temperature.
@Affekt i think it's exactly the same thing. how cool
@MLE_online and now I know it looks like Turing patterns. Time to dive the rabbit hole and learn about 'em

@MLE_online

It’s a test.

I hope you passed.

@MLE_online Due to the different densities? Like what happens in boiling water. Look up Rayleigh-Bénard convection.
@MLE_online Brownian motion? Like that teacup on board the Heart of Gold.
@vonslatt the teacup on the heart of gold?
