What began as a solution to the artificial look of TRON's CGI became one of computer graphics' most influential algorithms. We dissect Perlin noise—Ken Perlin's Academy Award-winning technique—that enables realistic procedural textures, terrains, and animations through elegant mathematical chaos. Discover how this 1980s innovation still powers modern generative AI and game engines.

A new educational project reveals the inner workings of OpenGL and Vulkan by building a minimal software renderer from the ground up. Using just 500 lines of dependency-free C++, it teaches core graphics principles through hands-on implementation of rasterization, texture mapping, and shading. This approach gives developers foundational insights for optimizing modern GPU applications.
