Tron has long been a movie for geeks, by geeks.  The latest addition, “Tron Legacy”, is no exception.  In a writeup by jtnimoy, he covers his additions to the film that are based on some tried and true computer geekery like EMacs and the Processing library.

When fixing Quorra, there was an element in the DNA interface called the Quorra Heart which looked like a lava lamp. I generated an isosurface from a perlin-noise volume, using the marching cubes function found in the Geometric Tools WildMagic API, a truly wonderful lib for coding biodigital jazz, among other jazzes. The isosurface was then drawn along different axes, including concentric spheres. The app was mesmerizing to stare at.
