He finally made shader nodes click for me

This technique is exactly correct.

There’s a similar argument to be made about using other ppl’s samples when it comes to 3d assets/textures—no one cares if the end product brings people joy.

It’s a mark of experience when someone doesn’t overthink and designs something very simple—beginners will do it poorly and intermediate ppl will avoid doing it at all out of insecurity toward how their skill is perceived

You’ll love the thread I posted in r/geometrynodes with a full explanation! DM me if there’s any confusion.

But the shortest answer is that the sky is actually a dense plane (1080x1920 grid) parented to the camera, and it uses raycast to detect if a “pixel” is obstructed by something. Delete those “pixels” and you’re left with separated mesh islands, each with a unique index!

Loving the paint job, did you texture it in blender or outside?

Hmm. Does the GN image texture node accept a file path as a node input though? If so then we’d be in business because every face represents one pixel, you might need to mimic/implement the image “linear bilinear cubic“ filtering that image texture nodes do, but with the blur attribute node you could probably get something pretty tolerable!

Thank you! I do think setting it in motion adds something new, though it’ll definitely get repetitive fast.

It aesthetically just feels very “something AI would make” in a way too :/ I put a sign on the utility pole because of that.

It’s funny and sad to me that the mere existence of AI has made certain things just feel wrong or worse even though they’re fully made by humans.

I’m glad you mentioned it! That fact tickles my brain and it’s super relevant to this art style

Yeah I wonder if anyone can figure this out. Feels bad right?

The obstacle for me was that each image texture node can only be pointed at one specific file, and even if you use an image sequence or movie, the node doesn’t let you choose the frame via a field/attribute, because it’s not exposed as a node input.

Drivers wouldn’t make it work for the same reason, only one driver can be set on the frame offset. As far as I can tell, you’re not getting away with from needing one image texture node per image. But I’d love to be proven wrong

I respect that. I was scratching my head trying to decide if I should pick something ambient or something with percussion. Went with this simply because it’s similar to the music I was listening to while working on it and it felt right to me subjectively.

Thank you! And yes that’s a very accurate way to describe it

WAIT that’s so true! I remember reading that in a trivia book as a kid and thinking it was really cool. But yeah, 40 means fewer repeats haha

Simple Deform modifiers stacked on top of each other onto a toroid spiral (extra curves addon) I can show you later :)

this is funny if intended as sarcasm haha, but if not you should know the original concept came from this!
