Ok. Hear me out. Resolume fluid simulation effect. I basically just took github.com/PavelDoGreat... and an optical flow algorithm and shoved em together. It adds fluid simulation to whatever video input you give it instead of needing you to like touch it with your mouse or fingers.

VHS Pro v2 is coming along. I managed to get my initial implementation down from 116ms per field to 4.24ms per field (910x262, it's interlaced). You'd think this would scale horribly at higher resolutions if I'm already at 50% of the 60fps frame budget, but GPUs are weird and don't scale linearly.

Bsky is gonna absolutely murder this video, but uh, damn that's one fucked up fake VHS tape (I probably need to work on the stage 6 shader a little more)

No actual hardware was involved in the making of this image. I simulated the RF output from a tape and fed that into vhs-decode. This is the resulting image. It's got some issues but I'm getting real damn close. The fact that I'm able to get a picture out of vhs-decode at all with this is amazing.

Go buy it. Even if you don't have Arena or Avenue. Go buy it. Even if you don't VJ. Go buy it. Buy it for a friend. Buy it for 14 friends. Buy it for your dog. All your friends' dogs. Buy it for your puppygirl. Buy it and let her chew up your video with it. Its amazing. Buy it.

I'm excited to announce that my new plugin VHS Pro is out NOW! A FFGL plugin that brings authentic NTSC composite video and VHS tape artifacts to your live visuals. 40+ tweakable parameters for everything from subtle analog warmth to "the VCR just ate my tape". Get it at glitchp0t.shop/l/vhs-pro

It's been a wild ride optimizing this today, but I think I've reached a point where I'm happy with the performance. (1 / 0.001813 = 551.6 FPS... minus the Resolume FFGL overhead anyway) I think I'm gonna call a 2.39x speedup good enough, lol.

Finally got the analog video rig patched back together to shoot visuals for the music video dropping alongside tomorrow’s Ken Ishii – Extra (Aural State Bootleg) release from @auralstate.gay. Had an absolute blast working on it, took 3 whole days to render in Blender too. Keep an eye out for it 👀
