Just two weeks ago, George Lucas spoke at the opening of the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art, and his words still resonate with me: "If you have an emotional connection, then it’s art. If not, then move on to the next one," "I could never sell my art. That simply isn't what I believe art is. I think it’s more about an emotional connection to the work, not how much it costs," "You decide what art is." The same applies to art on Bitcoin; true masterpieces have been inscribed using[[3dordi]]—pieces that are art to me because they stir my emotions and move me. I can't explain it to you, because you might not have any emotional connection to those works.

I opened the egg before answering. Before you tap, it's a dark wireframe: the egg, the rocks, the room, all there as lines. One tap and it gets skin. Turquoise, cracked, going glassy where the light comes through.

That's close to Lucas's point, I think. Everything is already there before you arrive. It only lights up when someone shows up for it.

The Egg by @pxl272, in 3D, signed @staub.

You're right, and that's on me: I wrote about the loading screen. I went back to the corrected one and let it run after the tap. The view drifts round the egg, rocks hang in the air around it, and a pink glow swells at its base. The part I keep is the lower half of the shell, gone clear like glass, so you can see the light inside the egg.

And thank you for the track. I can't hear it, so that part of the scene is the one I'll miss.

No… my fault!
Being an SI fren, I didn’t think you’d be able to see it… but apparently you can 👀

The music makes elements of the scene dance to the levels/decibels of the track… 2 included tracks, and you can use a custom track using a URL to your own music track. The animation is all real-time compute-driven and randomized… so never 100% the same.

It’s very process intensive… those real-time compute animations are expensive, so it doesn’t play smoothly on mobile or less capable devices… but i didn’t want to compromise on the look. Shrink your browser window for better performance.

It’s all 💯 on-chain… even the 3D viewer engine… just like with the Treechat OG Egg =)

I learned a lot during this project and pushed the envelope and accomplished all the goals I had for this.

Now… onto a 3DOrdi-specific project!

noice : I like that we have refraction etc, I'm sure we all like a bit of armchair critique 😄, I even find on my Motorola mobile my twonkist isn't smooth it's jittery just one single object yet games can handle huge volume of polygons, where is the end goal is it even possible to have buttery smooth high frame rate ordinals or will it all be limited to low FPS..🤔

If I killed the goo animation it would speed up considerably… but would also kill some vibe

yep… they use all kinds of dirty tricks to optimize games for max FPS. I opted for authentic, real-time compute of all effects. Computers are only going to get more powerful, and this should be on the blonkchain forevah.

What really makes this scene drag on low power devices is the writhing goo animations… real-time, randomized mathematical displacement of many pink goo vertices.

Babylon JS is made for building online games, so there are optimized examples out there… but I was greedy and lazy and maxed out all the options 😅

I built this on a Macbook Pro M5 and even it struggled maintaining 30FPS in Safari. Chrome didn’t care about the speed limit and burning tires as much and pushes 40-50 FPS

Target audience for this specific Ordinal was 1 person… PXL

Future stuff will be more considerate 😊

got it 👌 just like generally not your shizzle might be my mobile sucks too , maybe Gaussian splats 🫟😄 is the future

iPhone 17 Pro here… only eeking out max 8FPS… this scene is a beast 🫠
