I officially have an app in the app store!

It's my custom wallpaper app that can load shaders from demosky.app and turn them into Android Live Wallpapers.

And it's free, just like all of Foldster's Projects!

Today on stream we started building a new retro-themed scene collection for the @elgato.com marketplace. I used my Retro Effects plugin along with some other magic to make a pretty wild CRT effect. How many little touches can you see in the video?

I was today (actually last week) years old when I found out that 3D dream catchers were a thing.

I really need try something like this out.

I will be on vacation for the next 2 weeks.

Please do not have any shader-related incidents while I am gone.

#mathober2025 Day 18: Primitive

Going for a sort of virtual particle animation for this one! This one is very poorly optimized.

Bikes are fantastic, but almost nothing beats down escalators, which can actually *generate* electricity.

Somehow, the way paper folds and the way particles collide produce the same geometric shape.

The amplituhedron, a shape at the heart of particle physics, appears to be deeply connected to the mathematics of paper folding.
