Hello #ScienceMastodon!
I'm a microscopist and image analyst at the BIOP imaging center at EPFL in Switzerland.
I'll be sharing mostly nerd stuff about #ImageJ/#FijiSc. Can't wait to see if the scientific mastodon community takes off!
So, let's get serious: can we share videos here? Let's find out:
🇳🇱
@nKiaru Great to have you ehre. Looking forward to following you. Hit me up anytime if you are up for a chat.
@nKiaru saw this link saying best not to load videos... https://mstdn.social/@layeredstrange/109314189803424648
Hi,
I noticed this post suggesting uploading videos to YouTube (or similar) to lighten the load on Mastodon servers, & just link to videos instead.

@PCRVince Thanks! I tried to put a youtube link, but it doesn't autoplay. I understand the limitation, I'll refrain from uploading direct videos then.
@nKiaru I think the idea is to keep them light in size or else link out to hosted videos on other servers for reasons of storage costs over time.
Success! The video looks very nice, and one can even retrieve the original file with right-click + Save Video As... 👍
Awesome!
Quick video explanation: it looks a bit crude, but it's actually a dataset made of 100 stacked 'big' 2D images (~10kPix x 10kPix, 3 channels, 110Gb uncompressed). Each 2D image is non-linearly deformed to match an underlying 3D atlas (white outlines). There are ~ 120k degrees of freedom in the deformation field, which is computed on the fly, on a regular laptop, with three orthogonal synchronized views.
