@MaximeHeckel Ooo excited to check it out soon!

[Patt Vira @pattvira]

Here's a sneak peek of what we're building from scratch 💙

[Patt Vira @pattvira]

New to the platform, but I guess I have to start somewhere!

Let's start by sharing something useful. Here is my 'Intro to Shaders' video 🤓:

@alexharri_ @paper Very interesting approach - will give it a try! Excited to learn more about how a high-dimensional vector works and its parallel to word embeddings. Thanks for a wonderful post.

A few days ago, I shared my thoughts on AI.

I’ve been thinking about it for a while, but the timing finally felt right after experimenting enough to embrace the technology without getting swept up in the noise.

How do we build alongside AI without losing our creative authority? I dive into this friction and share why your technical fundamentals are still your greatest leverage.

@measure_plan How fun! I will give it a try with my city :)

[Patt Vira @pattvira]

@chihyu_chen_ love this one!

[Patt Vira @pattvira]

@measure_plan Thank you! Looking forward to seeing how far you'd go with this exploration.

[Patt Vira @pattvira]

Love the experiments @measure_plan has been doing, especially this one🎵 If you're curious about the physics behind this, I've got just a video for you! https://t.co/em2b1Ox9uP

i made a pendulum simulator

16 pendulums oscillate through wave patterns making music along the way

built with kimi k2.6, threejs, tonejs

you are getting very sleepy ..

[Patt Vira @pattvira]

@thespite Nice! Is this also based on the physarum simulation? I love that the trail structure is more subtle here.

@zachlieberman Looks like a flat sheet of soft serve ice-cream 🍦

Happy New Year! Kicking off 2026 with a newsletter!

✨2025 highlights: launched SPARK, co-organized a conference, exhibited my first installation, living the remote work dream
✨2026 shift: more writing & diving into shaders & AI

@jcponcemath @shiffman Hehe love it!! 😍

[Patt Vira @pattvira]

I’m sharing my creative framework PLUS something extra special coming this summer:
✨A playground for us Sparklies (yes that’s you!) to stay creative, consistent, and inspired!

More Chladni patterns. Now for a circular plate. Solution is in terms of polar coordinates, using nth order Bessel functions. Thanks to @pattvira 😃

@adamfuhrer So cool! Love seeing your experiments on lenticular effect.

[Patt Vira @pattvira]

@jcponcemath @p5xjs Thank you Juan! 🥰

Also inspired by the Dithering 'Interweaved Gradient Noise' technique from this post @XorDev (https://t.co/f1flCSASit) via @gorillasu 's latest newsletter (https://t.co/PyfCp4WdSL)

Dithering with IGN

An experiment inspired by the oddly satisfying crunch of a paper shredder.
