Endless scrolling

 I like endless scrolling. A lot of people today like endless scrolling, too, but for me it means texture displacement by wrapping offset, and for them, it means social media feeds!

I recently took part in a weekend meditation retreat, and in the library at the retreat center, found a great, illustrated book on Tibetan art. Here, I've recreated some of the border friezes as endlessly scrolling animations:

At this point, Inkscape user Lazur kindly taught me the sensible way of doing the animations directly in the SVG. Here are some sample animations created by him.

And my first animation with this technique:

This one may remind you of playing Tetris:

Texture Repository

I signed up for ShareCG in order to share textures that might be useful for others. My first upload is a fairly high-res seamless PNG-format circuit diagram texture, with alpha transparency. I'll add more occasionally, so if you're interested, keep an eye on my account (I'm not going to post about updates here).
