I've procrastinated on my pre-rendered background game dev tools for over a year but I'm finally back at it. I figured out a cool way to cast shadows on the background using dominant light direction inspired by @turanszkij nitter.gq/turanszkij/status/1897…
Test with only static lightmaps + probes + capsule shadows:

This is a physical manifestation of the TSFM thesis: a loss landscape computed over the thesis with Command-R. So excited to award this to the graduates of the school.
something special this week for the graduates of the Toronto School of Foundation Modelling

My one qualm with this article is that I if anything I should be credited with reinvigorating or championing interest. I got mad about Finch store’s situation, replies from followers keyed me into EHON’s existing neighbourhood retail push, and I went from there.

WHO ELSE DROPPING A LAUNCH VIDEO FOR A NEWSLETTER!!!!! I left Substack ~6 months ago to take some time off, shitpost, and think about the next leg of my career. But it was never actually complicated: when I was 11 my friends started a rock band, and they asked me to be their manager. For better or worse my entire life has been downstream of that — I want to become the best in the world at commercializing art. There are plenty of ways that'll come to life in the coming years, but for now I'm starting off by launching a newsletter on branded entertainment. Brands and tech companies are uniquely equipped to help artists take big creative swings, and I'm going to explore the intersection of those worlds. These companies are effectively modern entertainment studios, so how can they build better media properties? If you're curious about stunts, shows, or new media, I'm confident you'll enjoy this. Change is afoot on the internet, and it'd be wise to pay attention. Subscribe for free in the place one usually does that sort of thing <3

I'm making a game about urban transportation, so I began researching the world of 2000BCE. As it turns out, there's a lot we can learn from the paths Sumerian copper merchants followed. If you're interested in history, math, or simulations, this may be interesting for you.
