    Recreating a paper alphabet in blender

    When I saw Sabeena’s alphabet the first time, I instantly fell in love with the forms and colors. I was wondering if I could recreate the same feeling using Blender. I tried first using only things I can find in Blender and ended up with techno-tourette. So I decided to start up my old friend inkscape […]

    Unlimited area but no volume

    I was always very fond of the Menger sponge. I built my level 4 sponge manually, not by using a recursive script. You can find a Python script for blender here. Here you will find some renders.

    Number of the day: 2%

    I love parcels. This does not mean that I do not understand all the packaging. I ordered the Upgrade to Adobe Lightroom 4, which is a great piece of software by the way. As much it was fun to get the CD out of the box out of the box out of the box, there […]

    Wallpaper: “Sunset on Vienna”

    Facebook is a bitch. I am one of those people who randomly post their pictures on facebook. And I am one of these people who want their pictures to be seen – I consider them art and not instances of reality. So if somebody asks for a wallpaper I cannot say no. This might explain […]
