With the launch of this new website I promised to post updates more often… and I have no excuse given that WordPress makes blogging so easy. So what’s the latest news?

Well, I’m excited to say that I’ve recently landed a new job in the Netherlands. In a couple of weeks time I’ll be starting work at the University of Groningen, doing post-doctorate research in OpenCL/CUDA. I’ll be moving from the UK so I have a lot of organising to do, but I’m really looking forward to working with this state-of-the-art technology.

Of course, there have been requests in the past for some kind of OpenCL/CUDA support within PolyVox. It seems that I will now be gaining the expertise and experience to decide whether this is a good idea, and to implement it if desired. It won’t be for several months as I have a lot to do in the mean time, but it is definitely a step in the right direction.

We are also getting very close to announcing our first game. The only reason it isn’t being announced right now is that I want to complete the move first, so that I have time to respond to any interest which the game generates. That puts an announcement about three weeks away… so watch this space!
