i’m happy with each logo here except the main tetracg one. i tried going for an Alias Wavefront thing and got Colgate somehow
Relaunching my retro CG setup as TetraCG: an assortment of nifty nodegroups and render settings to provide an easier entryway into a style that I adore ^^

MIS in the latest tinybvh gpu wavefront path tracing sample:
Pretty good quality at 1spp. Also because of blue noise.
GPU code is about 300 lines (excluding traversal code); have a look if you want to see a practical (basic) wavefront implementation.

The wavefront of culture shifting over to cloying short-form content has really gutted the meaning of the word "satisfying." I am not "satisfied" by an internet video. You deserve to dream bigger.

we have a definitive and final upper bound on the energy of the infrasound interacting with the human body because it scales with the surface area of the wavefront, and thermodynamics prohibits the wavefront from containing greater energy at any radius than it began with at the point source.

Boooooo, it was a just a request for a paper I don't have about laser wavefront accelerators.

The tinybvh sample wavefront path tracer now supports specular materials. :) Never stops being amazing, just look at those caustics on the floor that appeared out of nowhere. Path tracing is such a cool toy.
