Dominos at Dusk: L-system Forms and Realistic Motion with Blender


Details
We're lucky to have Adam Latchem introduce and demonstrate two ideas:
L-systems - a simple but powerfully expressive method for generating beautiful, natural looking forms. Find out more at wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L-system

Physics engine for realistic motion - using the laws of physics to model how objects will move and interact with each other realistically in an animated scene. Adam will gently introduce L-Systems and demonstrate how the popular open source 3-d modelling software blender is used to create a beautiful short film.
Here's a taster:

If there is time, Tariq will do a short talk at the end showing the same L-system method to generate natural organic looking trees.
No previous expertise necessary - we'll start from basics and develop gently from there.
Please arrive before the 7pm start.
