Conceived shortly after I started earning a living through art, this piece reflects upon the mental drudgery of commuting to a dead-end job.
The System benefits when you live a life that isn't yours, and it will remind you in horrifyingly banal ways.

All There Will Ever Be Earlier this year I was invited to work on this Coinbase spot with the amazing team at @antistudio.global I was tasked with building two things: 1. A crane that automatically picks shipping containers off a random stack, and animates side to side in a controllable, time-lapse way. 2. An endless field of shipping containers that can be parametrically edited, or even masked with a pen tool. This one was about 3.5 million hi-poly models I believe. All procedural. All interoperable in the form of plugins (HDAs) that could be distributed across the team and used by anyone. It was also surreal to see this air during the NBA Playoffs. This was one of the funnest projects I’ve worked on–enormous thank you to the team for inviting me along ⛓️ #sidefxhoudini #cgi #octanerender
Hotel California for The Eagles’ residency at The Sphere
A shambling mass of concrete and glass assembles from the void, revealing a Beaux-Arts ballroom in which an opulent 1920’s Hollywood party is taking place.
I was responsible for the design, animation, and lighting of the room, with @aaroncovrett providing his masterful texture work. This was a challenging scene to build, not only due to my 10th-grade-dropout attempt at quaternion math in VEX, or the laser specific architectural direction, but because everything–from the cornices to the garlands to the abacuses–were actual geometry that was procedurally modeled, fractured, packed, and unrolled on a KineFX rig. Never thought I’d find myself rigging a building, of all things.
Whenever @possibleproductions reaches out to me, I do my best to drop everything so I can make it work.
This is because I get to:
1. Work on an insane project
2. With cool people
3. Who possess a humbling degree of talent

R&D for @margin.global
One of the trickier simulations. A balance of surface tensions between the liquid and the dropper, while also maintaining vacuous forces.
