deformation

Hello everyone,

I am new to blender. I would like if possible some advice about deformation.
I saw this demo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCGFmUfpmvM and I need to create one similar.
I ask you if blender is able to do it?
I would like understand if it’s possible do it as user but I am insteresting in code and graphics algorithms.

Hope someone help me. Thanks in advance.

Ale.
