Media and credits

Made here.
With credit.

The captures, models and people behind the scenes.

The original work.

The demo captures and films are recorded from native Cubey applications. The repository code and original self-hosted Cubey captures use the MIT license. Imported models retain their own authors and notices.

The images are resized and the films encoded for the site. The source includes the native scenes and instructions to run them. The SDF story also includes labelled interactive 2D illustrations; those explain the ideas separately from the native captures.

The original OpenGL recordings on About Cubey are hosted on my YouTube channel, with their upload dates labelled separately.

Models and sources.

Authors and source notices for the imported examples and terrain elevation.
