A Conversation With Peter Blaskovic
Today we had the pleasure to have an online conversation Peter Blaskovic a true Processing Artist. He draws his inspiration from nature. He designs his interactions based on what is interesting for him and then improves them based on user feedback.
He shared with us how he developed his fire simulation. It started by curiosity of noise and how it moved base on Perlin Noise models. He kept adding features to it based on feedback from the people who were visiting his site. One of his newest demonstrations or products is Fire Painter. It differs from professional image programs such Adobe Photoshop in that the brush is always changing which allows for anyone to create beautiful design without much complications.
Peter also shared with us that he prefers using Processing because the only limit is the speed of Java, he believes it is simple and it allows him to focus on just what he needs.
Another thing that Peter shared with us was how he uses research of published works and then adapts them to take advantage of its contents in order to develop his Processing demos.
Overall the conversation was very educational and inspiring. When myself and my classmates told him what we were working on as part of our projects he was impressed with all of our ideas.
The following were links that he shared with us as to demonstrate the progress of his developments:
