Dance of 800 Cubes

[Spoonfoon]

This is pretty neat... But it doesn't rhyme...

[kjlg74]

@Spoonfoon :D no, not even a little.

[Spoonfoon]

@kjlg74 I'm afraid I can only think of a few things that rhyme with Cube(s), and I'm not sure you're gonna like it...

[kjlg74]

@Spoonfoon LOL :D

I think I can guess what some of those things might be.

[DibbersPage]

Wow, that was outstanding H&R

[kjlg74]

@DibbersPage Thanks a lot, Dibber! :)

[Gn0meSlice]

... I don't THINK I'm stoned... This must just be the trippiest thing ever!

Really interesting results!

[kjlg74]

@Gn0meSlice LOL, thanks a lot :)

[Gn0meSlice]

@kjlg74 I remember I participated in a 1 week mini-course and you showed us an evolution tool you'd created. Did you create this tool as well?

[kjlg74]

@Gn0meSlice Hey! You were one of my students? How long ago? :)

Yes, I created this one too. I wouldn't really call it a tool - the only thing the user can do with it is start it and stop it, no ability to configure it or anything like that. It's just a bit of fancy trigonometry and a 3D graphics system called OpenGL.

[Gn0meSlice]

@kjlg74 It was either 1 or 2 years ago. I participated in your 'pseudoscience and skepticism' mini-course.

Also, if the user can't do anything to it, what do you mean by "some tweaking", in the video description?

[kjlg74]

@Gn0meSlice I mean that I tweaked the actual computer program itself. Basically, producing a new version of the program that works slightly differently than the old one (the old one is shown in a couple videos on my channel). It's written in the programming language called "C++".

[Gn0meSlice]

@kjlg74 That's what I figured. So you just changed some of the algorithms?

[kjlg74]

@Gn0meSlice Exactly. Just playing around; simplifying some things here, making them more complicated there - changing some speed settings, angle settings, etc.

[tostrong4you]

cool

[kjlg74]

@tostrong4you Thanks, tostrong4you! :)

[CurrentlyDisconected]

great music choice it went really well with the dancing cubes

it reminded me of a nightclub that might exist in the TRON universe

[kjlg74]

@CurrentlyDisconected Thanks, CD!

There's just one thing missing - I need to figure out how to animate me a shiny anus next time ;)

[CurrentlyDisconected]

@kjlg74 LMAo that would be hilarious

[kjlg74]

@CurrentlyDisconected I need a shiny anus to be famous in this crazy crazy galaxy :D

[kid29a]

Beautiful... especially with the song... Thanks for a chance to visit another dimension ;)

[kjlg74]

@kid29a Thanks, kid29a!

Everything's better with the right musical accompaniment :)

[newcoleco]

Hypnotized... O.@ ... err... I am a dancing cube, I am a dancing cube...

[kjlg74]

@newcoleco You must join the cube collective. Resistance is futile! ;P
