I can't send images in DMs. I got this with 150994944 dots/particles, 12 Newton method steps, and work on random Newton method seeds positions. It takes less than a second to render.

Thanks. I've got this project, "variograph", which similarly renders a lot of dots from input parameters. I just put a function to find roots of one of your posts' polynomials. I guess it's very broken so far but it runs in less than 1 second on GPU to make this. It stops at 8 newton method steps.

How long does it take to render the image?

I've got this video from 2022, experiment with inertia looking similar to some of your results: www.youtube.com/watch?v=uIYE...

Not a fluid simulation, using the physarum algorithm ("36 Points" version by mxsage, described in my article) with nice parameters

Very cool, I might try things with it

I'm not sure doing complex things with different simulation parameters par agent is a good idea, from my experience. It'a also not used in 36 Points. But would be interested if it's successful on your side.
On my side I would like to get closer to 36 Points with different deposit.

happy to see you experimenting with spatial variations of parameters. Do you plan to use a more complex simulation algorithm with more parameters?

Etienne Jacob @bleuje.com · Jul 26

nice, I don't have good knowledge of what people usually do to implement physarum. I feel like most people don't use compute shaders and don't do atomic add. I went into the atomic add just from trying to implement the Jeff Jones paper myself.

Etienne Jacob @bleuje.com · Jul 26

nice, how are you doing the deposit? drawn dots, or atomic counters like me?
Also that's a large resolution you've got!

please try stuff and report results :)

Etienne Jacob @bleuje.com · Jul 14

my pleasure!

Etienne Jacob @bleuje.com · Jul 14

that's so nice to hear! thanks
by then it'll probably have more stuff but I should still try keep it concise. Thinking about pressing buttons to show more parts/details or videos, so that the article doesn't appear to be longer
