Touch of Colour | Jakub Spacek | FMX HIVE 2022

Let's dive into a world of fluid matter and explore some fundamentals behind abstract behaviour of liquids in Houdini FX.
Jakub Spacek is originally from Czech Republic, working with studios like OFICINA to his transition to London where he spent last 4 years in FUTURE DELUXE. Jakub has expanded his artistic perception, developing deep passion for simulating abstract visions of real-world phenomenon focusing on even the smallest subtleties of shape and motion. He explores how we can truly enjoy this vision by composing immersive, pleasing, and meditative content.

Damn this is awesome, thanks for sharing! I think you said the file for this would be available at some point? I would love to poke around and learn more in detail about it.

[@ahahlex]

same question ! ready to pay for a hip file to play with. But it seems possible to reproduce the scene by following the presentation, depending on your houdini skills

[@vodahlava]

​@@ahahlex you can find the scene file here, as well as a bit more about Jakub, the design process of the sequence (both visual and audio) -- www.sidefx.com/touch-of-colour/

[@richnosworthy2497]

[@Rick_Sanchez_1337]

Thanks for the great presentation. The given hip file isn't really working and has a lot of errors. For example dop import has wrong inputs, the sop solver isn't working because a reference to "Timer" is not given. I tried to simulate it 1000 frames but the force field isn't advecting anything nor does anything move.

[@marcolondero]

I've had the same issues. - Corrected the dop input reference - Wrong group name reference in Pop Attract Shape. stream should be "stream_SHAPE_ Source" not "stream_SHAPE" I think. - about the timer thing, I think you need to recreate it as string and put it inside Parameters in Edit Param Interface.

[@TheInduztrial]

Hi! in vop node with curlnoise - Jacub has attributes - @nscale & @nrough. from wich place they are?

[@marcolondero]
