Wave Simulation with Caustics

Another fun project I’ve worked on. Its a ripple simulation that I’ve been using for VRChat for quite a while now. It uses an old algorithm (that honestly, I dont fully understand myself) combined with a subdivided mesh that gets displaced and colored based on refraction from the ripples and polygon density. It’s not a super practical effect, and uses a camera feedback loop since at the time of creating the shader for the wave simulation, I didn’t have access to scripting or custom render textures. Good ol’ VRChat hackiness!

In the Sandman, since Dream 'came into existence once lifeforms capable of dreaming appeared in the universe', I wonder what that lifeform is and what did it dream of. Like what is the first dream in the universe about.

Hidden Within Thought

Each thought is created by neural patterns and neural patterns are electrical-chemical signals stimulated from sensory pathways located from inside the body and information outside the body. This is well studied. However, what remains unknown is the "focus" aspect of it.

Our consciousness is our awareness and awareness comes from "focus". "Focus" is a range from very general to very sharp, similar to a camera being out of focus to in focus.

Focus is crucial for personal development! If I have a certain reaction to a certain situation and I have guilt about it, how then can one develop oneself from not doing this certain reaction. When I am stressed, I drink, or I take a drug, or I yell and scream at the first wrong thing. Or, I am greedy, I am selfish, I think only of myself, I hate you, or I hate myself, and so on.

Focus demands that one totally accepts one's reaction and behavior. I do not give myself excuses. I do not try to justify my reaction, my anger, my selfishness. I accept that is me. I totally accept.

When you totally and wholeheartedly accept it, then you are focused in sharply to that thing that is deep inside you! Then, with the sharp focus you then ask yourself, "What caused me to have this reaction? What made, inside of me, to do it?" The focus will answer your question. You do not answer it yourself. The focus will give you the answer. And then, if you have the courage, you focus more, you sharpen your focus, and asked, "What caused me to have this particular cause that is inside of me to do it?"

What happens is that your range of focus gets sharper and sharper, more refined, more tuned in to the universe that is all around you.

Focus is from your soul! Focus is 4D. Focus separates you from the 3D world!

The thing with the Byler twist - and it is a twist, even if we’ve predicted it - is that all that the general audience really needs to be on board is to realize that all of Mike’s behavior will have remained in character. No sudden change or confusion to accommodate this fan service ship. Even if you didn’t see it coming, it is very consistent with his behavior over the seasons.

That’s all you really need for a good twist. Not predictability but rewatchability. Does it makes sense? It doesn’t matter if it was built up. Because this isn’t a slow burn. It’s an “it was under my nose the whole time” subversion. Yes, it’s been built up from the start but that’s the part about being under your nose the whole time. Some people will have caught it some won’t, but ultimately, the fact that Mike’s behavior won’t change is what will make people see it.

Because the general audience is, by definition, not actively fighting the idea. Casual viewers. Character consistency is all that’s needed. Even if it WERE to be fan service, if they were to be able to execute that unplanned plot with great character consistency, props to them, that’s the story now, and I’ll accept it. (Just like I say a non-Byler ending would be totally great if it can maintain character consistency and realistic happy endings within that - I just can’t think of a way it can). 

This has been a long way of saying.

Mike and Will getting together will not feel out of character or like an adjustment or accommodation to this “new” storyline. And that’s really all that’s ever needed for a twist or subversion to work. It doesn’t have to be foreshadowed or predictable. It just needs to make sense. And as long as that’s true, no general audience member will fight it.
