Dave Pagurek

Toronto artist and computer graphics programmer. I help maintain p5.js and its WebGL mode. Will probably answer your graphics questions if you ask 👀

After soliciting horse drawings for a while... I now have made a "documentary" about it https://t.co/JpvWyzTq7f

You can start testing it out now here: https://t.co/BF6zb7TOzw Let me know what you think, and if you're interested in doing some commissioned sketches, or participating in and helping test our marketplace soon!

[Dave Pagurek @davepvm]

In addition to helping maintain p5, for my day job, I make a motion graphics video editor, Butter. I think the best way to do that is have every component be creative code, so we've been building an editor for developers to create components out of regular p5 sketches. A thread:

[Dave Pagurek @davepvm]

We're actively working on a component marketplace, so soon you'll be able to sell access to your sketch components.

📢Applied math research opportunity incoming!

@davepvm is unsatisfied with easing functions:

This topic is fun, interesting, and fundamental for graphics. It's also accessible with a background in undergrad math (or engineering). Guidance is offered!

Have you ever wanted a panorama app that adds weird jank to every picture? https://t.co/JfKtWL9gKb

[Dave Pagurek @davepvm]

Home for the holidays and with some time to write, I wanted to make a post about the @p5xjs 2.0 work from this past year ahead of the release next year, and what makes its community special https://t.co/gvbmmGvMQz

[Greg Stanton @HigherMathNotes]

Like math and want to learn computer programming? Want to give the gift of learning?

I've developed "Programming for math learners," a short course for small groups. It's for educators too!

It covers all programming fundamentals through fun math problems and projects...

Hey @JoshMatlow and @MayorOliviaChow I'm hoping you all will fight the province on this!

[Dave Pagurek @davepvm]

The Ontario Government is trying to strip out bike lanes we just got finished building and is adding lots of red tape to the process of adding new bike lanes. I got annoyed enough that I made this protest song in a week. Go call Doug Ford!! https://t.co/EPfB9gLNJI

If you want to learn actual reasons why this policy is ridiculous, @OhUrbanity has a great video: https://t.co/OTR6UP2jCn

Similar feelings.. What are your takes on @bluesky vs Mastodon?

[Dave Pagurek @davepvm]

@openprocessing @bluesky I sorta hope Threads doesn't win out because do we really need another Meta thing being huge? But also being able to follow Threads people from Mastodon without being fully on Threads does seem like a maybe healthy compromise

[Dave Pagurek @davepvm]

@openprocessing @bluesky Bluesky feels more like it's in the same niche as Twitter, for better or for worse haha. Hopefully it'll stay non-toxic like it is right now. I don't know enough about its take on algorithms/moderation/etc to know if it'll be effective at staying that way long term
