Ok, so as per @whale-av 's advice I have seen on the forum, I have been looking through the PMPD folder included in extended...

I would like to use physical modeling with images, but alas, there are no examples illustrating such and after searching the folders and forum/net I have found no info on the topic thus far...

This must be possible.....any insight?

Thankssss, hope all are having a nice start to their weekend.

@lovelovevideo Did I suggest "38_elastique_membrane_on_a_sphere.pd" ....... I can't remember......
There are ways to plot images onto objects (textures) ........ which might help......... sorry it's been a while since I looked at gem, but on the "anything is possible in Pd" principle I will have a look at it with reference to that patch....... assuming that is what you mean?........
If you put this file in the pmpd/examples folder and open it you can open an image for the main ball from the spheres subpatch....... etc.
38_elastique_membrane_on_a_sphere_mod.pd

@lovelovevideo Don't exactly know what you mean, but check out the mindblowing egregore.

@Johnny-Mauser Same author..... yes........ it's Cyrille Henry again!

@whale-av CHEERS you are a star...i think you know that already....

Well, I would like to explore all of the modeling options...however, this is indeed a start..

I was looking to apply the modeling to the image....now I see i must apply the image to the object being modeled

@Johnny-Mauser I was talking about what @whale-av just provided in the example....I guess its just a simple matter of image/texture mapping
