These mountains have always been a special place for me – one of my favourite places in the world. They’re not especially high, nor extensive, but they are ancient and, as far as I know, poorly understood from a geological perspective. Something to investigate. They emerge abruptly, mysteriously, from the...
This page will host my experiments with Gaussian-splatting pipelines. I finally found some time to get round to setting up the environment – pretty straight-forward stuff – and a lot of emergent integrations that are worth exploring. H.M.S. Endurance My first test is based on the H.M.S. Endurance NeRF work...
You can visit Planet Plop here. It’s just a sketch at this stage and will evolve over time. Music and songs are created in collaboration with my friend Glenn Rogers. From my perspective, I’m using it to explore and develop an emergent array of AI tools and techniques that can...
It’s exciting times for working with Large Language models for computer programming – especially for generalists like me who work across a range of platforms, languages and task-spaces that are often not very conversant with each other. Plus I am a ‘lazy’ self-taught programmer – there is far too much...
Visualization showing seismic survey stations across East Antarctica (2020) and inversion profiles of BEDMAP, Crust and LAB datasets. Produced for the Antarctic Gateway Partnership. Visualization by Peter Morse, Tobias Stål and Anya Reading University of Tasmania 2020. More work-in-progress in future updates.
Playable Earth :: ANAT Bespoke Disrupting the status quo of Earth Observation Visualisation through immersion and interaction. Playable Earth is an ANAT Bespoke Residency in partnership with Swinburne University. The project aims to explore novel ways of visualising and interacting with satellite-originated Earth observation data and analytics using modern game development environments....
Virtual Macquarie Island v2.0 . Version 2.0 presents a massive leap-forward upon v1.0 on display at the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery (TMAG) since 2021. The project received Visions of Australia funding to develop the project from a simple demonstrator to a sophisticated prototype suitable for permanent and travelling exhibition....
The release of NVIDIA’s Instant NeRF is a fantastic opportunity to explore the technology’s applications for cultural heritage visualization. There is, of course, a lot of hype about it and its utility for ‘ushering in the metaverse’ – I would take this with several large grains of salt, as the...
GPlates is ‘a plate tectonics program..(used to)..manipulate reconstructions of geological and paleogeographic features through geological time.’ I’ve looked at (and used) GPlates on and off over the years – it’s definitely the kind of software you need to spend some time getting your head around, as it is deep and...
What started off as a little zero-budget technical experiment in my spare time inadvertently turned into a bit of an epic. Anyway, I started getting my head around some technical things I wanted to figure out, so it’s all good. Hope you enjoy it. If there are mistakes regarding place...
