  • Graphic Design @ uni got me in to 3D art

Much of my free-time is spent with camera equipment or images. I also enjoy buiding computers, listening to various audio gear and exploring nature, which my desk kinda shows:

Welcome To My Happy Place

Most of my work day is spent at this desk, It's a standing one so I try to remember to do that a few times per day, but for most personal projects I prefer to work on my laptop.

Personal Projects

Lately I have been getting in to photogrammetry (making 3D models via batches of photographs). Making mostly tree trunks, with the idea of finishing the upper branches and foliage in Speedtree, for use in real-time game engines (for personal projects).

 

Experimental Photography

I enjoy many other multi-image photographic stitching techniques, things like:

  • Photo Stacking

  • HDR

  • Panoramas

And my favourite technique has long been... "Bokeh Panoramas", which is why it has a dedicated category on this website. This technique has inspired me to buy lenses and cameras. I also made a Facebook group for it here, which now has over 500 members, which is quite a lot for such a niche technique.

 

Dial Design

I once tried to design a camera becuase I thought I had a good idea for how physical dials could work in a more tactile and readable way, whilst being faster to switch between various levels of automation and limitation. I have a few more ideas how this could be improved. I need to follow this up with a new model and texture it properly this time.

If I'm not working, on my phone,  laptop, or out photographing things; I will be watching Youtube, Movies, TV, or playing gmes. Here's a few of my favourites...

Audio Reviews

I used to review headphones for a while. I keep meaning to review the ones I own now but don't have enough time. Those are...

  • Sennheiser HD600

  • Beyerdynamic DT 1990 Pro

  • Beyerdynamic Amiron Home

  • Sony WH-1000XM3

  • HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless Gaming

  • Audeze LCD-2

 

Future Projects

Making racing games & designing racing routes in 3D, through city streets has developed an interested for infrastructure and city design. The more I look into ideal urban design, public transport, responsible social spending, eliminating polution, sustainable happier shared spaces, green energy etc. the more I want to design my own cities from scratcgh. I am planning to design mini dioramas in realtime 3D engines like Unreal 5 to show how this could work.

 

Squirrel Obsession

For the last couple of years I have been rather obsessed with photographing Eurasian Red squirrels (Sciurus vulgaris) in Scandinavia. Both in cities and rural environments.
