Surfel-based global illumination on the web
Can we use WebGPU to compute real-time global illumination with surface patches called surfels? Does it look good enough? Is it fast enough? And can we finally construct viable compute-heavy rendering pipelines right here on the open web? Join me on this journey and let's find out!

Making Worlds: Introduction
In this multi-part series I try to make a procedural planet generator that runs on the GPU.
Understanding The Math Behind ReSTIR GI
Recently, I had the pleasure of contributing to Nvidia’s Zorah project, the flagship demo for the RTX 50 Series GPUs. My primary role was to provide technical support for light transport in Zorah, which included collaborating with my colleague Daqi Lin to implement a brand new ReSTIR-based global illumination solution, specifically, ReSTIR PT[1], within the NvRTX branch of Unreal Engine. A GDC presentation video on Zorah was released a few weeks ago.

Shadowing
Shadowing is a qualitative user research method in which a researcher observes participants in real‑life contexts over an extended period without interfering. It is used to gain deep contextual insights into behaviors, workflows, environments, emotions, and workarounds.

Rendering Particles with Compute Shaders
Overview I developed a technique to render single-pixel particles (using additive blending) with compute shaders rather than the usual fixed-function rasterization with vertex and fragment shaders. My approach runs 31–350% faster than rasterization on the cases I tested and is particularly faster for some “pathological” cases (which for my application are not actually that uncommon). I observed these speedups on both NVIDIA and AMD GPUs. Using this technique allowed me to ship an app that runs on minimum-spec hardware without sacrificing visual fidelity.
