COMPUTER-GENERATED

Bugmuthur is an ongoing computer-generated art project. She was born when I needed a test case for my custom animation pipeline, and has grown into my alter-id.

The current centerpiece of the project is an animated short called bugmuthur's SEWER ISSUE.

If you would like to keep up with bugmuthur, you can follow her on TikTok, YouTube, and/or Instagram.

The four embeds below are freelance animations I created for an Illinois State Geological Survey documentary about their carbon sequestration partership with ADM.

I cast them each as a fruit, targeted their audio to the fruit mesh using Nvidia's AI lip syncing tool, exported it to Maya for additional cleanup, and rendered from Blender.
