Blender splash art that takes 42s per frame to render now browsable in real time as a 50MB 3D Gaussian splat

@abstrakt314 shares a neat trick: the latest Blender splash art takes 42 seconds per frame (0.02FPS) to render with Cycles — hopeless for real-time use.
Instead, SpenserFX converted the Blender file into a 3D Gaussian Splat, uploaded it to SuperSplat, and compressed it into a 50MB .ssog file. Now anyone with a browser can inspect the artwork from any angle in real time via the PlayCanvas engine, with downloads available.
