It’s a lonnnnnnng time since I did anything in QC, so I thought I’d try and keep my hand in a bit, by doing something really simple.
As usual, it didn’t turn out to do quite as simple as I thought it would, in the end, but it looks very simple
It’s basically just a 2D tiling effect, but works iteratively, so brighter areas of the image are subdivided into small tiles.
Uses a JavaScript loop inside a Core Image Kernel. I don’t know what the latest state-of-play is with JavaScript in CIFilter patches. There used to be memory leaks. Dunno if this is still the case.






This would be great for a music vid
Hiya,
I’ll try and get around to making a little demo video of the effect. It’s not all that interesting with basic webcam video input, but if you created material with the effect in mind, you might be able to get some interesting results from it.

Nice one
Thanks! It’s a very simple effect. Looks a lot less interesting than I thought it would in motion, though. Maybe you need the right kind of input for it.

Oh man, that is so darn cool!
