Here is something I did a few years back to reveal a map.
https://vimeo.com/26487726

It's a simulated weightmap. You take an irregular geo (polygon reduction
is perfect to create these) and apply a fractal weightmap to it. Then
you create a new weightmap and add a simulated ICE tree to it. For each
point, check the value of the simulated weightmap on the neighbors. If
it's 1, add the value of the first weightmap to yourself.

This way, each point gets contaminated by its neighbors at different
speeds.

You only need to trigger the first point manually.

Re: Growth in ICE

2016-04-01 Thread Francois Lord
Here is something I did a few years back to reveal a map.
https://vimeo.com/26487726

It's a simulated weightmap. You take an irregular geo (polygon reduction
is perfect to create these) and apply a fractal weightmap to it. Then
you create a new weightmap and add a simulated ICE tree to it. For each
point, check the value of the simulated weightmap on the neighbors. If
it's 1, add the value of the first weightmap to yourself.

This way, each point gets contaminated by its neighbors at different
speeds.

You only need to trigger the first point manually.
