Signed Distance Fields Explained

BLOKS Fundamentals Signed Distance Fields Explained Understanding the mathematical geometry system behind raymarching, procedural graphics, and modern shader art. Signed Distance Fields, often called SDFs, are one of the most powerful concepts in modern procedural graphics. They allow geometry to be described mathematically through distance calculations rather than traditional polygon meshes, enabling raymarching, procedural worlds, […]

The Evolution of Real-Time Graphics

BLOKS History The Evolution of Real-Time Graphics From wireframes and raster displays to GPUs, shader art, raymarching, and immersive procedural worlds. Real-time graphics transformed computers from calculation machines into living visual systems. Over the past several decades, advances in rendering technology, graphics hardware, procedural mathematics, and GPU programming reshaped games, film, simulation, audiovisual art, and […]
