V5I: Bifurcated Lava Flow
Thursday, June 29th, 2006An updated version of this article is now available on my website at Creating a Bifurcated Lava Flow in Vue Infinite. After more experimentation I’ve finally achieved a Bifurcated Lava Flow in Vue 5 Infinite that I’m happy with. To make this I first looked at some maps of Bifurcated flows. I then drew a […]
V5I: EcoSystem to Objects Python Script
Thursday, June 29th, 2006A little python script that will place a cube at the same location as each instance in an EcoSystem. It gives each cube the same rotation as the instance. It also scales it by the same scale factor in each direction as the instance. There is an additional parameter to allow the scaling to be […]
A Novel Experience
Wednesday, June 28th, 2006After a hiatous of several months I opened my half finished novel and started to tackle the scene I got stuck on. I hit a continuity error that I didn’t really want to fix in the first draft but didn’t think I could afford to leave unfixed either. It is now fixed so I can […]

Overkill for a small site but why […]
New Pages
Tuesday, June 20th, 2006Even with a two hour interuption for football I’ve added two new pages to the impworks site tonight: one for VueDynamics and a contact form on the contacts page.

Monday, June 19th, 2006An updated version of this article is now available on my website at Creating a Bifurcated Lava Flow in Vue Infinite.

V5I: Lava Flow
Sunday, June 18th, 2006An updated version of this article is now available on my website at Creating a Bifurcated Lava Flow in Vue Infinite. I’m working on a picture of a volcanic eruption. The explosion part is coming on well, the smoke not so well. Today though I wanted to get something that might be a lava flow […]
