Building and animating surfaces with procedural beziers.
Row and column logic makes it easy-ish for texturing like below. A Houdini viewport animation using COPs:
Visualised handles although in the system they’re controlled by vex code & parameters:
Dynamic dunes
Growth simulation with dynamics
Improving some workflows for getting my growth systems to work nicely with simulated dynamics in Houdini.
Here’re some older prototypes which I don’t think I ever got around to posting previously:
Lidar painting

A few tweaks to the point cloud in Houdini to get a nebulous sculpture.
An another one with a bit more artistic license.
Twists
Kaleidocycles
Here’s some flip book animations of some vex generated kaleidocycles with dynamic GLSL shaders.
Forest floor growth
Mossy growth
Abstract organic growth
