Michael, interesting concept, wonder what it might do if a person used a sepia toned image?

hey c -
this algorithm reads in the color of the pixels in the images and then takes that as a particle. the particle races a path with some random velocity and acceleration.
if the image was sepia the result would be sepai. I can contol the hue, saturation, and brightness, but here I stick to the basics.

m-
this is the better of the new images. very good looking effect. if you have maya, have you tried mapping the image to a particle's RGBpp attribute? pretty cool if you have proc power, to have the image made up of a trillion particles, and then just add a little bit of volume noise to the particles, and randomize the weight of each particle. Then animate.. sit back and trip out.
keep it up M!
cheers,

Maya...
At one time I used Alias Sketch... I recently downloaded blender and was, to say the least, completely overwhelmed by the interface. It's been so long since a CATIA course and some of the 3D work that I've become hopelessly stale.
Unfortunately I can't run the software or have the big iron to support what you are talking about, but man, I think it is close to what I can get in slo-mo with this iterative particle stuff.
Kind of like "The Lawnmower Man" movie with the particle explosion. Only better.
