Do you know what it takes to make something great? A couple of years ago, we started a recurring event we called Soularium Social, and invited some of our agency friends, clients, and other entrepreneurs to come and give talks about what they do and their special sauce. One such speaker was none other than the indomitable Greg Johnson, who is the CEO and co-founder of AquiPor Technologies, Inc. You have to check them out, and see how they are going to change the world. Also, they are looking for investors (shameless plug, and I fully endorse these guys). Greg was gracious enough to put a synopsis together of his speech, which I'll tease in the following three bullets: - The Title: From Hype to Hard Work: What It Really Takes to Build Something Great - "Have an unrelenting purpose and don��t just be a hero in the beginning." - "...persistence has earned us a lot more work, but it��s also earned us a world of new opportunities." In a time where economic uncertainty feels like the new normal, and there's a motif in many of the conversations I have had with other owners about difficult times (and truly empathizing), this was such a great reminder for me. We're over here putting one foot in front of the other, and Greg's words are comfort, encouragement and inspiration as we keep working on creating magic. Check the full read out in our Grimoire: https://lnkd.in/d8sexdac The video is a quick snapshot of some of the 3D animations and visualizations we did for Aquipor.

Hopping the train with Bob Dyce with this video and having some fun! These kinds of products are so cool, and such a testament to creating experiences on the web, and how accessible you can make some of the tools utilizing AI. I've had a lot of conversations with peers about AI in recent months, especially in the last month, and this reinforces how I perceive the current landscape - AI it making it possible for really talented people to do really amazing things. And quickly. If you aren't utilizing AI in your development projects, you need to. There will be a massive talent divide over the next year to two (if it isn't already developing), and a lot of people who haven't adopted it to some degree will get left behind. It also reminds me of the time when Apple used an x-ray effect tutorial from my buddy Chris Lambeth as inspiration for the iPhone 16 reveal. I'll share that link in the comments. Reposting Bob's credits for the product: Built with: Vercel | So seamless and fast, especially the image storage for this project Radix UI | Open-source UI components for building accessible web apps Claude by Anthropic | Would never have solved using poisson to model the edges without Claude��s help Cursor | Most of the React work was done with Cursor chat �� makes life so much easier Created by these fine folks: Chris Messina (who shared it to the Product Hunt community) Stephen Haney Ksenia Kondrashova Vlad Moroz #web #webtech #ai #cursor #Claude #vercel #webtools #animation #copycat

Continuing to pull the curtain back on some of the magic we make. With HIMSS right around the corner, I'm remembering this fun project we did for a client at the show a few years ago. From designing some custom vector illustrations, to fully animating the assets, the interactive kiosk experience made storytelling easy. This experience ended up becoming a framework for us to reskin multiple times for other industry verticals and shows. Do you have a difficult story to tell, and need an interactive experience? We will make that magic happen. Houdini Interactive #experiential #tradeshows #digital #vectorillustration #animations #kiosk #interactive #2d #storytelling
