ProcessingVisualisation DRAFT entry № 01

Quad-tree, in 3D.

Quad-tree, in 3D

A Processing sketch that pairs a 2D quad-tree with a 3D render of its own tree topology — click to drop points, watch the partition redraw on one side and the tree of spheres rebuild on the other.

ProcessingVisualisation entry № 02

Binary search.

Binary search

A Processing sketch that walks binary search across a sorted strip — start, end, current, and the tick-tock between aiming at the midpoint and comparing what you find.

03
SimulationVisualisation DRAFT entry № 03

Telecom satellite simulation.

A real-time simulation of a telecom satellite constellation built in Unreal Engine — orbital mechanics, beam coverage, and the choreography between ground stations and birds.

04
ProcessingVisualisation entry № 04

Mandelbrot renderer.

Mandelbrot renderer

A keyboard-driven Mandelbrot explorer in Java + Processing 4 — pan complex space with the arrow keys, zoom with =/−, and pour your CPU at whatever pocket of the set catches your eye.

07
ElectronicsMusic entry № 07

Analog Synthesizer.

Analog Synthesizer

After a decade of digital pursuits, soldering my way through 22 RC pairings to find the sweet spot of reverse-avalanche oscillators.

Game of Life, 3D.

Game of Life, 3D

Conway's Game of Life lifted off the 2D plane into a 3D cube lattice — neighbours counted in all 26 surrounding cells, the living set rendered as coloured boxes that an orbiting camera circles.
