Dave Whyte is a motion designer based in Dublin, Ireland. He is a prolific creator of captivating animated loops—his influential Tumblr account Bees & Bombs popularized animated GIFs created from code, while simultaneously changing Dave’s focus from physics student to full-time motion designer. After receiving his PhD from the Trinity College Dublin School of Physics in 2017, Dave has been working in his studio full time under the same moniker, Bees & Bombs. Since 2011, he has made 1,000s of 5–10 second looping animations, each year going deeper into the details of coded form and perception.
