Punks? Rats? Squish? by @briansolomon.fbx

Saving this one. This night was one for the books, and seeing our moon finally present itself to the world was so otherworldly.

Because of the sheer scale of Sphere even something as simple as a rotation speed or angle becomes a unique challenge to test. We timed the spin of the moon and its shadow using a setup I created in UE5 live in our Burbank Studio.

Great example of nuanced use of real-time in design that couldn’t have happened without it. Someday I hope we can show behind the curtain breakdowns of just how much goes into bringing content to life at this scale, and some of the amazing tools we had to create in order to bring a city scale structure like this online.

So proud of the team that brought this to life across MSG and Sphere. Truly a legendary venue and moment for entertainment.

This Maine winter is cool and all, but I miss Santa Fe winter.

I miss green chili and friends. 😭 by @briansolomon.fbx

Boris Acket - Secret Life

Such a stunning sequence. It was a joy getting to lay down and just go on the journey. A masterful use of cable robotics + touch designer. @boris.acket ‘s composition for @fredagainagainagainagainagain by @briansolomon.fbx

Excited to share the new poster for LILITH AI Lecture Performance, designed by and in collaboration with our friends Brian Solomon 🤖

Inspired by the iconic Tamiya model kits, this poster represents the different pieces we had to put together to create LILITH – each component a vital part of the whole, waiting to be assembled into something greater.

This is your last chance to catch the full lecture performance this year at Theater and Science Festival Heilbronn on Saturday 20th at the Dome Theater at experimenta.

Next year, we'll be performing an extract at Remix Summit in London in Here East.

Don't miss it 🤍

I really like where these came from and how they got here. It’s been so long since I made just made anything outside of general client facing projects. Feels tingly. by @briansolomon.fbx

To show how useful/malleable this approach is, we applied this material data to graphic designs, and during our workshop we used a live NDI streaming camera to turn our @sxsw attendees into 🦖 (their choice!)

It was a lot of fun improvising with the crowd! We also gave out Play-Doh and let them sculpt their own needle-felt stop motion characters in this 101 level workshop.

@atara_xyz was also able to show them how to use segmentation to mask and make subtle changes to image details.

The before and after in this image group shows an unreal engine scene with an @luma_ai Gaussian Splat in Unreal Engine, providing us with a semi-consistent figure and room, which allows for a lot of flexibility and makes it similar to composing for any other medium. by @briansolomon.fbx

Via @atara_xyz and I’s workshop from @sxsw 2024 for @framestore

We wanted to focus on all the ways AI could blend with any workflow, and enable any type of artist to unify and drive a style with whatever input method they want.

To do this, created a material specific Lora similar to what you might find in stop motion film, and created and image-based conversion letting us guide an output that stays more consistent and controlled, and allows for creativity with live video, game engine, or any other image.
