Tangential, but I've been exploring gaussian splatting as a photographic/artistic medium for a while, and love the expressionistic quality of the model output when deprived of data.

Loving this; great work! Do you talk about the process anywhere in more depth?

		Thanks! I'm using the KIRI Engine in Blender to render splats from my photos (https://github.com/Kiri-Innovation/3dgs-render-blender-addon) and then process the image as I would my photography in Lightroom. There are lots of different photogrammetry tools for generating plys (the point cloud) like PolyCam (https://poly.cam).
