Curiosity

This piece began as an experiment I’d been wanting to explore for some time. The idea was simple but compelling: use a fluid simulation’s velocity field as the driving force behind multiple systems. The motion of the fluid would push vellum hairs, translate into shifting color, and also dictate the birth and movement, of particles.

Exploration

The setup came together quickly and served as a rich exercise in cross-pollination within Houdini. By allowing Heightfields, Vellum, and DOPs to interact, I was able to stack effects in unexpected ways, building a system where motion and color emerge naturally from shared forces. The result is a layered, interconnected simulation that yields both intricate dynamics and a uniquely striking visual beauty.
