INTRODUCTION TO SPHERICAL HARMONICS FOR GRAPHICS PROGRAMMERS finally done. gpfault.net/posts/sph.html

Just got back from Revision demoparty—my 64KB intro took 1st place. Huge thanks to @alkama.bsky.social for the audio work that made this possible. It’s a fully procedural 3:40 animation packed into a 58KB executable. I had a blast building it, and the audience reaction was incredible.

A colleague sent me this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jVo... No further comments needed, it's **very** good. I've seen some of his videos in the past, but I missed this one. Glad I saw it.

New post on how to do real-time diffuse global illumination using surfels and #WebGPU: juretriglav.si/surfel-based... #threejs

"Order and disorder." probably my last take at #genuary26, uses a 3D pathfinder to go from neatly ordered stacks to a random layout. #genuary2615 BTW, I'm available for freelance work (2 days a week for now). HIRE ME, I'm GOOD (& CHEAP! 😁) also ok with collabs, mentoring, Q&As, AMA...

Our bands new music video. www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1yu...

All the presentations slides of the Graphics Programming Conference 2025 are up #GPC2025 graphicsprogrammingconference.com/archive/2025/

Went to see the latest Avatar (HFR) with my boy and...: Does my gamer/gfx brain see fps differenty then Cameron's brain? The movie is both 24 and 48fps, it jumps between and this switch makes 24fps look extremely laggy! It looks so disturbing that some people MUST perceive fps differently then me.

My "No Graphics API" blog post is live! Please repost :) www.sebastianaaltonen.com/blog/no-grap... I spend 1.5 years doing this. Full rewrite last summer and another partial rewrite last month. As Hemingway said: "First draft of everything is always shit".

This is Sektori! A twin-stick shooter I've been making (and documenting the journey) since April 2021. And it finally launched TODAY on Steam, PS5 and Xbox! Here's a fresh launch trailer, all shares highly appreciated. More game info in replies. #indiegame #ps5 #xbox #steam #indiedev #gamedev

I've been avoiding news since June. I'm totally unaware of how scared and angry I should be.

Most of the slides and course notes for the SIGGRAPH 2025 Physically Based Shading in Theory and practice course are now online, with more to follow: blog.selfshadow.com/publications...

Looking forward to my first ever Siggraph next week! Who's around? Who wants to have a drink? What are you looking forward to catch at the conference? See you soon!

I'll be at Siggraph Vancouver this year. Anyone else going?

A new blog post on our N64 demo: 30fps.net/pages/palett... It explains the normal mapping technique and how baked lighting was stored and composited at runtime. Also reveals what a hack the specular effects were!

New blog post! "Load store conflicts", in which we look at some performance sensitive code that has surprisingly dramatic performance swings based on the compiler and the microarchitecture used. Reposts appreciated! zeux.io/2025/05/03/l...

I got tired of people relying on other people's code to build demos (or games for that matter) so here's a tutorial in 40 steps and ~400 lines of C++ on how to build a renderer (with music) in DX11: gargaj.github.io/demos-for-du...

New dithering method dropped I call it Surface-Stable Fractal Dithering and I've released it as open source along with this explainer video of how it works. Explainer video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPqG... Source repository: github.com/runevision/D... #gamedev #vfx

Think WebGL is too complicated? 🤯 We invited @amagi.dev to share how his VFX-JS library makes stunning visual effects effortless—custom shaders, dynamic interactions, and more! Read his article and learn all about it: tympanus.net/codrops/?p=8... #webgl #webdevelopment #javascript

Northern lights yesterday at my backyard.

Continued some coding at home last night and now at the office I realized that I forgot to push. It was good work so I'll better go back. Lessons learned: 1. Don't forget to push? (how? tattoo? poster to front door?) 2. Forget to push = stay is shape 3. Don't work at home? 4. Don't work at office?

Hi Bluesky! With the sudden closure of Jumpship, I'm looking for a new role I'm looking for anywhere I can make beautiful things with code, my ideal role would be a mix of graphics programming, technical art, and gameplay programming (or anything else interactive)

Greetings folks!
