Love you Dad. I’ll miss you.

This Father’s Day has been a tough one. Yesterday I lost my dad, Tom “Tad” Douville. He passed away at the age of 80. He raised me as a single father, and we had a wonderful relationship, and I’m incredibly grateful for the time we shared, the conversations we had, and all the things he taught me throughout my life. He served in the U.S. Navy during the Vietnam War era as a Petty Officer Second Class, working in electronics aboard the USS Palm Beach. He was an outdoorsman, a storyteller, and someone who lived life on his own terms. Today I spent Father’s Day going through his things and found some amazing old photos that I wanted to share. Looking through them gave me a chance to see parts of his life from before I knew him - his navy years, younger days, and the experiences that shaped him. Love you Dad. I’ll miss you.

Pinball Countdown – #9 – Play Ball!

The PBS Sesame Street Pinball Number Count (or Pinball Countdown). Segment #9 – Play Ball! recreated in 3D animation. The ball rolls down a ramp and encounters some baseball players, runs over a hot-dog vendor, and is chased under the bleachers and dropped into the hole by a dog. Number 9 only features two flashes of its number instead of three.

Dark Side of the Moon – A 3D Perspective

A 3D reimagining of the iconic Dark Side of the Moon album cover. Created in Blender, this animation brings the legendary prism to life with dynamic lighting and cinematic camera movement. A prism creates a rainbow of colors through dispersion—when white light enters, it slows down and bends, with each wavelength refracting at a different angle. As the light exits, it spreads even further, forming the vibrant spectrum we see. This animation captures that mesmerizing effect in a fresh, cinematic way.
