Ray Tracing Harmonic Functions (opens in new tab)

Keenan Crane back once again with the ~~renegade master~~ shithot diagrams! For those not familiar, check his publications with ridiculously beautiful diagrams, going way back (I remember when he was maybe best known for a Quaternion Julia tracer, often used to benchmark GPU FLOPs): https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~kmcrane/

Also fun for topological nightmare enjoyers is his "Yeah Right" model on https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~kmcrane/Projects/ModelRepository/ (img link: https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~kmcrane/Projects/ModelRepository/yea...)

Cool as hell. Keenan Crane has excellent YouTube series on discrete differential geometry and computer graphics.

Hopefully this will lead to nicer physics graphics since harmonic functions are everywhere.
