@ancientjames IRL gaussian splat

@ancientjames what if instead of fog in the middle, it is a block of glass that is spinning that has the specks in it? Like the ones where you turn a light on and it is a globe, but just making spots across the whole block.

Would that work with this kind of setup or would it “activate” too many specs?

I have no foundation around light/refraction so I don’t have a clue if that would work

@dvandal I don't know if you've seen the display I made based on that - https://mastodon.social/@ancientjames/115578423742426811

Spinning the block would allow a higher density, but alignment would be very challenging.

@ancientjames That is very cool and super interesting.

So hypothetically doable, but at an immense engineering cost to get it Just Right

@ancientjames brilliant! 🤩

@jasoncoon Thank you! As usual it's been a massive saga getting useable video of it in action. I don't know why I do this to myself.

@ancientjames That looks pretty awesome. Now do the Princess Leia hologram from the first Star Wars movie.

@ancientjames I'm so glad that you're so persistent! And maybe slightly masochistic?
