Flip Fluid on Flip Dots
The gist
Tim Alex Jacobs built a FLIP fluid simulation on a flip-dot display for EMF2026.
The electromechanical dots add sound and physical motion to a normally silent simulation.
How it unfolded
- Sep 24, 2026mitxela publishes the "FLIP Fluid on Flip Dots" project page, marked "Progress: Complete," describing a FLIP fluid simulation on a flip-dot display for EMF2026.
