&lt;p&gt;My scene is composed of three renderings of the same icosphere. One is used for the moon, one is used for the center planet, and one is used for the clouds surrouding the planet.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I used Simplex noise for almost all effects in this project. For the moon's vertex shader, I sampled the noise at 4 different octaves, sqaure rooted the resulting float multiple times, and set a cut-off value; this resulted in a smooth sphere with many sharp craters. Its fragment shader maps colors to new noise values (as well as noise values sent from the vertex shader), and implements slight Blinn Phong shading sepending on the surface color. For the planet's vertex shader, I sampled the noise at 6 different octaves, and then cut it off at a value fluctuating between 0 and about 1/15 to make water look as if it's expading and contracting. In it's fragment shader I calculated the noise in different ways for the water, sand, and ground features. The water has a Blinn Phong shine at the bri</image:title>

MY CITY&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Welcome! Today we explore the history of my city. Surrounded by a mysterious goop that no local seems bothered by (except for its possible influence on their strange taste in architecture), it is a hilly paradise filled with an amalgamation of structures they call home - all manufactured by yours truly on Maya.&lt;/p&gt;</image:title>

			<image:title>During The Second Expansion, people built bridges throughout the land in order to travel, however none have yet to settle down.

The toggle bar floating on the side of our world allows you to explore alternate realities where our water levels differ. Our MST algorithm always ensures we have the most efficient bridge structure. For clarity in this walkthrough, however, we'll stick to Water Amount 3.</image:title>

			<image:title>The Third occurs, and people begin to realize how great residing alongside goop is. They build the foundation to their houses, making sure not to work over trees, and they're more likely to reside on the flatter plains for ease of construction (and also less trees). They based their logic off of noise to keep things consistent.</image:title>

			<image:title>With The Fourth Expansion, the residents are fairly settled in, and decided on two main architectural styles. The building style consisting of odd orbs can be slightly fickle, so, for safety, the residents were more inclined to build those on the flatter surfaces.</image:title>

			<image:title>As more Expansions come along, more people move into our weird little town. To accommodate, the buildings are extended upwards. Each floor is rotated from the previous, and the buildings that had roofs retain them.</image:title>

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:20px;&quot;&gt;TESSELLATIONS AND BEZIER CURVES:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prior to incorporating physics in my grass simulation, I wanted to display the grass' shape itself. In the tessellation control shader, I specified that the horizontal tessellation level be 2 and the vertical be 8. This means that there are about 32 triangles per blade, I believe.

The generated vertices (created in the tessellation engine) are passed to the tessellation evaluation shader, where I convert the vertices to world space and place them on a Bezier curve. General structure is shown below:&lt;/p&gt;</video:title>

&lt;p&gt;This was a super fun part: I enjoyed playing with different colors to get an artistic effect.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:20px;&quot;&gt;PHYSICS:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After adding a simulation of gravity, blade stiffness, and wind (as described below), the scene truly comes together.&lt;/p&gt;</image:title>

			<image:title>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Gravity&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Given a gravity direction, and the magnitude of acceleration, we can compute the environmental gravity, &lt;strong&gt;gE&lt;/strong&gt;. To view how this would effect the tilt of each blade, we combine it with &quot;front gravity,&quot; &lt;strong&gt;gF&lt;/strong&gt;, which is the contribution of the gravity with respect to the front facing direction of the blade.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Recovery&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Recovery corresponds to the counter-force that brings our grass blade back into equilibrium. This force is determined by comparing the current position of the Bezier endpoint to its original position, and multiplying the difference by this blade's stiffness.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Wind&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In order to simulate wind, I chose a constant wind direction, and varied its intensity across the grass by plugging the grass blades' origin points (and elapsed time) into sin and cos functions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:20px;&quot;&gt;CULLING:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</image:title>

			<image:title>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Orientation culling&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Since our grass blades are planar, we do not need to render grass whose faces are near-perpendicular to the camera. We determine a blade’s relevance by doing a dot product of the camera's view vector and the blade's front face direction, and we cull it if the result is greater than 0.9.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;View-frustum culling&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For this type of culling, I casted the given blade's origin point, endpoint, and midpoint into NDC, and checked if any of these points are within our view.

If done correctly, the only evidence of View-Frustum and Orientation Culling would be in the performance analysis.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Distance culling&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Aesthetically, the closest grass blades hold the most importance, and we need less detail the further the grass is from the camera. Thus, I cull all grass after a distance of 28 units, and I created four distinct distance ‘buckets' to gradually render less grass:&lt;/p&gt;</image:title>
