Some older visualisations
Most of the recent visualisation work I have done with my collaborators can be found on the Cosmic Defects YouTube or Vimeo channels. I plan to write more about those soon. In the meantime, however, here are some older visualisations I made over the years.

I mostly use VisIt to create movies and 3D plots of my work.
