Ah....back at the @everythingproc.bsky.social with @sidefx.bsky.social for my regular procedural fix.

Think COPs are just for texture synthesis? Think again. In this rapid-fire 30-minute investigation, we’re playing around with Houdini’s revamped Copernicus context to see how versatile it is.

Procedural animation inspired by the artists of the internet, made with Houdini and COPs.

Inspired by www, made in Houdini COPs.

Continuing that Necro book, trying out procedural inner pages - everything done in COPs:

- python expression in Font COP, to load a text from an online cookbook and break it into 20lines per page

- per "frame" randomization - discoloration, edge breakup, edge decoration, center decoration...etc

Yup - the usual - mesh and bones.

Fun new wip/exercise:

- full procedural modeling
- procedural pages system and book opening
- procedural skeleton and eye animation
- minimal manual keyframes and chops for secondary motion

Merriam-Webster’s human editors have chosen ‘slop’ as the 2025 Word of the Year.

It's roughly 4 years since I started to work on the 3D sparse fluid solver for what will ultimately become EmberGen 2.0.

A quick look at the current performance state of the solver.

EPC2025 | Creative Ember from Nodevember to December | Nikola Damjanov YouTube video by Everything Procedural

EPC is one of those niche conferences where you can just go and nerd out with the peers.

If you are curious about my personal projects, the talk is live 😎

Experimenting with NPR clouds in Houdini COPs.

Loose the Goose - amuse or abuse, just refuse the blues.
---------------------------------
Dark times jiggle me to make goofy things.

Procedural loop - Houdini SOPs for base geo, COPs for texturing/displacement/compositing and post effects. Kinefx for neck wrenching :D

More breakdowns! This time - pure Houdini COPs 🪵

Procedural breakdown with Houdini and COPs

I'm getting engaged with personal projects again.

Daily #procedural #houdini doodle with COPs and displacement.

Procedural all the way #houdini

Houdini 21 is out and I fell in love with work from The Line Studio // here is a small inspired piece.

Stay hopeful.

More than we will ever know, and they would ever care.

This is just pointless.

Sure! Everything is based on Vray Toon shader - objects have custom line width which is varied with a noise float parameter. Crosshatch has a tri-planar map and is only mixed in the shadows. Most of the linework is from the toon shader itself but the main building has some lines painted in texture

Working on something new with obvious inspiration.
