So last week @darya5711.bsky.social and I built this new thing to replace what OJ and then Bitfellas used to provide: news.scene.org Thinking about creating a Bluesky / Mastodon feeds for it as well, but not 100% sure they're really necessary.

glaswegian trans people! do you want to see some sick animation? tomorrow at the Small Trans Library we're showing Jonni Peppers's compilation WASTELAND! a profoundly emotional collection of five thematically linked short films about flat-earthers, UFO cults and hotdog eyeball surgeries awaits~

my company's new game Rail Estate [has just got a steam page](store.steampowered.com/app/3762240/...) ! it's a fast, board-game-like multiplayer game about bidding for train lines, building up networks, and brutally shortcutting other players to make their number go up or down.

As we do every year, we gathered creators in all positions related to animation as well as people passionate about art to share the works, old and new, that they've loved the most over the last year. It's finally time for the Sakugabooru Animation Awards 2025! blog.sakugabooru.com/2026/01/23/s...

Many thanks to kVin for inviting me to this years Sakugabowl once again. As always a super interesting selection of thoughts, please give it a read!

Another pencil drawing I finished up that I'd like to get painted soon. 🧜‍♀️

Decided to animate this, just to see what it would look like

akihiro miwa is such an interesting figure. even the name 'akihiro miwa', a chosen name which goes back to a religious experience during yukio mishima's funeral! english-language sources seem to use he/him pronouns and the term 'drag queen', but i feel like some nuance is probably lost there ><

Akihiro Miwa perfects Moro's laugh in the recording sessions for Princess Mononoke From: How Princess Mononoke Was Born (1998), dir. Toshiro Uratani, Buena Vista Home Entertainment

This modern gem was animated frame by frame on a screen of 277,000 metal pins From: The Night Boots (2024), dir. Pierre-Luc Granjon, Am Stram Gram Full film: www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hyO...

#portfolioday, I'm trying my luck again with my very old illustrations ⚡️⚡️⚡️

For this week's @field-fx.party shader jam, I extended my fragment shader pathtracer to use cosine-weighted sampling and support multiple spheres. plus a small box blur ('we have restir at home'...) Catnip suggested a cute little rolling shutter effect to make the spheres wobbly.

Sherlock Hound is a gem. Hayao Miyazaki built an idea from an Italian studio into a brilliant adventure series. It was a turning point in his career, and his last TV show. Behind it were clashing visions, young talent and lots of money, as we explore: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/miyazakis-...

Just some pointy hatted wizards, keeping to themselves (based on some marvellous Scythian headwear)

shoutout to the makers of tvpaint for handing out free 16gb usb sticks to get people to try their software at annecy. this thing's done so many linux installations now

Fire horsie. Brought to you by metal horse (me). I think a horse of metal and fire is typically called a motorbike

Ersatz is OUT! The indie pilot I've been solo-animating for 1.5 years is now on youtube. Check it out! youtu.be/yf2tBjHvx9s?...

A fun commission for Jerez about an architect building a maze.

Some of you might know that I've been working on a book. Today I'm happy to announce Palette Programming: A Modern Guide to Color Quantization paletteprogramming.com It's a textbook on how to design palettes and represent images using them. Will be out this year. Code in Python & NumPy.

Looking for a job #PortfolioDay

as part of my ongoing relationship with the state of massachusetts i have been tapped to develop a new bumper sticker to raise the profile of the city of boston. i think i did a good job considering the circumstances

New post! "Realtime Raytracing in Bevy 0.18 (Solari)" jms55.github.io/posts/2025-1...

I can't claim it's efficient, but for this week's @field-fx.party jam, I made a little pathtracer in a fragment shader! featuring the world's hackiest temporal accumulation #demoscene src: github.com/canmom/jams/...

New release! The Orphan Fansubs team have put out an anime film previously only available on VHS, IT RAINED FIRE (1988), scanned by us from a 16mm print. It's based on the gut-wrenching tale of the Fukuoka firebombing in 1945. nyaa.si/view/2057163

I wrote about creating intricate twisty shapes by integrating divergence-free fields, using Rust, wgpu and compute shaders! github.com/MagnusThor/s... You can run the effect in a WebGPU-enabled browser here: canmom.art/noodles/ src: github.com/canmom/noodles #demoscene #graphics #wgpu #rust

Obviously, this is amazing BUT the thing I love most, is that it's directly poking fun at the desire/fetish to overanimate overlapping action & smears. Asking someone of James Baxter's calibre to *intentionally* do this (as well as mess up the spacing on a bounce) is funny in the nerdiest way.

I have been enjoying Matt Godbolt's Advent of Compiler Optimisations
