An 8mm film I recently acquired:

Another of my 8mm animations…

I’ve been experimenting with direct animation (or drawn-on animation), using 8mm film.  The process involves taking developed 8mm film and bleaching it to remove some or all of the emulsion.  You can then apply inks, paints and other materials to the film in order to create colourful textures.

More maya/unity fun.  Play the latest (beta) build of my unity game here.  This is in very early stages, and the sounds are placeholders only (in fact, most things are placeholders for now!).

Astraware’s Word Games is now up on iTunes.  I did all the sound design and music for this title, so it’s great to see the iOS version up at last!  Congratulations to the team, who have been working hard to get this game just right for some time.  Go buy it for your iOS device here (also available on Android and Nook Color).

Finished Will Goldstone’s Unity tutorial game.  The game is playable at this link, click here.  None of the audio or assets are by me, this was purely to learn my way around Unity.

My PhD is now bound and completely finished, and so I have also uploaded everything to the PhD page of this site.  You can read it as a PDF, and you can download zip files of the discs that go with it.  I decided to make my PhD available online in order to make it accessible to anyone who is interested.

I’ve been enjoying a lot of the Chicago footwork/juke stuff lately: e.g. Traxman, Dj Rashad and co.  These tracks are my experiments with footwork-type rhythmic patterns.  This was also a chance to try out Rob Papin’s ‘Punch’ plugin, very nice drum synth.

Experimenting with Mandelbulb 3D.  This is an excellent piece of software which allows you to render fractals in 3D, including animation.  There are some excellent examples on youtube.  Below are some of my attempts.

Just added a couple of new videos.  First we have another Wwise demonstration, with a nautical theme:

And second, a clip from my Atomizer piece in the 60×60 Dance show by Robert Voisey.  This is from the St. Louis performance in 2010, the performers do a great video-game themed dance.  To see the full show, go to the HEC TV page.
