Field notes
Archiving disappearing spaces through Gaussian Splatting. Studying what the algorithm keeps, distorts, erases.
-
Petite Ceinture — Avatar interaction & local field deformation
Third-person avatar interaction inside two Gaussian Splatting reconstructions — Petite Ceinture railway and adjacent bridge. The environment reacts locally to the player’s movement, producing spatial deformations along the path.
-
Petite Ceinture — Particle forces & splat interaction
Gaussian Splatting environment navigated with particle forces in Unreal Engine. Splats scatter like fragments as the camera moves through the reconstructed Petite Ceinture railway, under snow.
-
Petite Ceinture, under snow — Bridge
Three training iterations on a bridge section of the Petite Ceinture, Paris. Artifacts appear where pedestrians crossed the scene — viewpoint-dependent instabilities documented across 150k and 100k iteration datasets.

Petite Ceinture, under snow
Gaussian Splatting reconstruction of the Petite Ceinture railway in Paris, captured under snow. Navigable 3D environment with radiance field exploration — Insta360 X4, PostShot, Unreal Engine.
