As announced a few months ago, I recently taught two London based workshops and in the interest of learning, the source code of various examples done at both events is now available in the learn.postspectacular.com repository. Released under the same license as toxiclibs itself, LGPLv2.1. The most recent workshop took place at Metropolitan Works, the […]
I thought it will be very useful to give a better overview of the current development tasks (and challenges) for the near future. The diagram hopefully visualizes this current state quite well and this mega post discusses the most important points in more detail.
The ongoing lack of tutorials is still one of the most pressing issues to resolve for me & everyone else using (or trying to use) these libraries. Add to this the recent lack of updates to this blog, it all might give the illusion the project itself is stagnating. This couldn’t be further from the […]
Six months in the making and at least three months delayed, the anniversary 0020 release of toxiclibs was finally released today. A little Happy-New-Year present for you & me. Before getting into the details of the countless things which have been changed & added with this release, please first go forth and download the bundle […]
It’s this time of the year again – Showreel time! By now the project has grown to over 270+ classes distributed in 8 sub-libraries and especially this past year has seen the potential & impact of these libs realised in different fields from architecture, education, generative product design to interactive installations, and that not just […]
Just earlier this week I finished a project for which I needed to work with quite large 3D meshes (2 million+ triangles). The meshes needed to be stored in such a way that one can efficiently navigate from a given vertex to its various neighbours and so forth (e.g. for use in a steering system)… […]
Before it gets too quiet here (sorry about that recent work & travel-induced hiatus, there’re loads of updates coming), I’m super happy to announce details of the next workshop related to this project, incl. a preliminary outline/focus topics for us to get our teeth into. This upcoming workshop is entitled Olhares de Processing (Glimpses of […]
This is part 2 of the discussion of the classes & processes provided by the recently released simutils package. The first part of this series dealt with Diffusion-limited Aggregation (DLA) and this next process too is related to the simulated diffusion of particles. However, whereas the DLA process dealt with individual particles, this next one […]
In a way 2009 was the best year for this project so far: more commits than ever, more examples, more documentation and above all more (as well as more or less happy) users – thank you all for your support & patience! Especially since the April release (nicknamed “CADA”) I noticed increased interest and myself […]
If you're a regular user or use these libraries for commercial purposes, please consider contributing a small amount to help the further development of this project. Thank you dearly!
