Houdini HangoutTonight (4/23/2025 at 6pm EDT) we'll look at creating a FLIP sim with whitewater. First we'll talk about sourcing whitewater from a sim, and then we'll look at how to use a guided wave setup. Thanks to our Discord community for the request. Hope to see you then!<a href="https://mograph.social/tags/sidefx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sidefx</a> <a href="https://mograph.social/tags/houdini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#houdini</a>

Houdini HangoutTonight (4/16/2025 at 6pm EDT), we're going to look at how to make an MPM sim inspired by this work from Jan Elsner: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/C-m-LiNNN1e/?igsh=bDR0bzlubHk0NTQ0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/reel/C-m-LiNNN1e/?igsh=bDR0bzlubHk0NTQ0</a>It's a really great piece, and since he mentioned using MPM for the project we'll do the same. Hope you join us!<a href="https://mograph.social/tags/houdini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#houdini</a> <a href="https://mograph.social/tags/sidefx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sidefx</a> <a href="https://mograph.social/tags/vfx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vfx</a>

Houdini HangoutTonight (3/26/25 at 6pm EDT), I'm going to make a few different examples of how to create a kinetic wind sculpture. I'm referencing a video that my co-worker sent me. I'm going to try to make a few versions: purely procedural, driven by a pyro sim, and possibly a dynamic version.<a href="https://mograph.social/tags/houdini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#houdini</a> <a href="https://mograph.social/tags/sidefx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sidefx</a> <a href="https://mograph.social/tags/vfx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vfx</a> <a href="https://mograph.social/tags/sim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sim</a> <a href="https://mograph.social/tags/procedural" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#procedural</a>

Born on March 24, 1874, the world knows Harry <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Houdini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Houdini</a> as the greatest escape artist of all time—but was he also working in the shadows as a spy?Declassified <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/CIA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CIA</a> documents reveal that Houdini’s escape techniques influenced real-life espionage tactics and gadgets. Concealment devices, such as magic coins and Houdini's hollow Mokana shoe—used to hide escape tools—became widely adopted by spies during the Cold War. <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/magic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#magic</a>
