Blender 3.4 - Geometry Nodes for extruded 70's / 80's style MOGRAPH!!! - PART 1
TIME STAMPS below!
Maybe the exact same thing can be achieved with shaders, i'm not sure, but i have the feeling that other effects and a different look are possible when you create it with actual geometry.
Feel free to comment or suggest anything down below.
Here is the blend file as seen at 41:00 https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aZ3o...
And here's the blend file from the end of the video:
