honored to be a recipient of a new aesthetics grant from @patrickc & @tylercowen to explore how designing solely with code can change our relationship with the objects in our lives; my most ambitious projects coming soon
English
@Jesperish thank you, this means a lot
i’ve been a longtime admirer of your work, it was instrumental in inspiring me to make this account and give my own creative pursuits everything
English
@cybermononoke thank you!
not to worry, it’s clear now that my life will be spent creating; any break is just a pause to listen
English
@instance_11 the machine gods stopped sending your posts to my feed and i thought you’d stopped making!! but what a lovely surprise to see all your new work. ineffable as always
English
@Padres_Farm it will be back in a few weeks, anyone who signs up for updates on secondnature.inc will receive an email when the next cycle opens
English
@graveair there is no distinction, both technology and nature operate within the laws of physics
code is not like DNA and trees, code is nothing but a means of converting logic into actions in the material world
find what is best through any means, nature is a well of strategies
English
Machine naturalism is much more repulsive and stupider than machine spirituality, the beauty of technology is the metal and porcelain, the naked wires, not that it resembles “nature” and how code is “actually like DNA and trees.” Pure ugliness.

i envision a world without duplicates

@lkenflkbewfbewf the animations are recordings of shaders (like the attached)
the rest is all photographs of vellum sheets printed with my designs and casted silver pieces

this ring is 100% math everything including the logo and engraving is a signed distance field written in GLSL
English
@throughchrist17 i will be listing more snowflakes indefinitely, next batch will likely be added in about a week
English
@instance_11 Definitely interested. When is the next drop
English
@Elmonopunch the animations are code, mostly screen recordings of signed distance field shaders running in a browser like this
i also recently made a custom rendering pipeline to get shadows/ reflections, may post a breakdown soon

@zigmoo thank you!
it’s an original improvisation in A minor, piano has become my main aesthetic organizer for my visuals
m_11@instance_11
i wrote a full composition in c# minor for my three.js glyph creature to eat
English
@init_malachi thank you!
the audio here is a snippet from a long session of improvising, imagining this video as i played; i then made the video based on the audio, it was a joy to draw from both sides
English
@r0b0t_sp1der i’m still very much learning the ropes of audio, i wanted a very metallic/vibrational sound so i recorded the piano with an iPhone laying directly on the frame; the voice was generated from a similarly tinny source, i then applied some light filters and added a hard limiter
English
@ligmasugma28 yes the first batch is live on secondnature.inc, & i plan to scale generative 1 of 1s indefinitely
the piano music is an iPhone recording of me improvising in A minor, i recorded it first and created this video around it
piano and code occupy the same space in my mind

@instance_11 Are you selling these rn? Also what’s the piano music titled?
English
@chronosensitive yes, i think pure chaos is often the wrong lens when contrasting nature with imposed order; i believe much of the beauty we enjoy comes from chaotic growth within an ordered substrate
English
@instance_11 You know that’s a funny way to put it.
Most of the time I hear people talk about this, they think of it as an attraction towards chaos, but you could also state it as a repulsion toward similarity
