Material / Original controls

Shape the texture.

These ranges and defaults come directly from the app’s material panel.

Nombre de lignes · More rings, or more room between them.
Amplitude · Strength of breathing and deformation.
Irrégularité · Geometric precision to organic detail.
Profondeur · Ring definition and presence.
Richesse des couleurs · Secondary and complementary tones.
Durée d’une scène · Time before the next automatic behavior.

Choreography / Current vocabulary

Choose a movement.

The original randomized registers keep evolving automatically.

Scene names are preserved from Sourdine.
Off preserves the app’s ambient idle pace. This experiment never plays music.
Visual diagnostics only; no service state is being changed.

Composition / Inspection tools

Find the origin.

The app anchors its field to the second letter of the station name. Keep that relationship or explore a manual origin.

Renderer and accessibility notes

The GLSL, palettes, behavior equations, original defaults and device-pixel-ratio cap of 1.6 are preserved. The surrounding gallery UI is adapted. A local scheduler extension adds true pause and snaps discrete changes under reduced motion.

Reduced motion suppresses automatic behavior and ambient drift. You can still change material and palettes. Origin controls do not require dragging the canvas.

Capture frame opens a local image preview. No image is sent to a server.
