GENERATIVE FORMS

A twisted generative surface, raymarched and grid-shaded.

Generative: dithered still of the generative forms scene

Approach

A rounded box is twisted, bent and domain-repeated until it stops looking like a box. Because those operators distort space, the distance bound is no longer exact, so the marcher scales its step by a Lipschitz estimate.

Techniques

  • Twist and bend operators applied in sequence, with the step factor tuned per operator.
  • The same analytic grid shading as the SDF study, to keep the lab consistent.
  • Time-varying twist driven by a slow sine so the form breathes.

What to look at

Watch the silhouette: the grid reveals how much the space is being sheared, especially near the waist of the form.
