Bright Moments

Watching a DVD logo bounce around a tv, our inclination is to predict where it will go. There is a well-defined process of particle and boundary that makes this possible. But what if the particle and boundary were the same? If there was no distinction, if a point could reflect against its own history, if a ray could change its conditions as it experiences them? If light could interact with itself and countless others simultaneously in a fractalized infinity, shaped by time, giving structure to time itselfwhere might it end up?

**Descent** 
Custom software, Javascript, WebGL
Variable dimensions, silent

Mostly downwards, mostly gray. 

Descent is an attempt to represent depth using only characters from the code page 437 (CP437 for short, or extended ASCII).  
The viewer is taken on an infinite journey along a column made of characters; the characters lose their original meaning and become shapes, structure.  


**Keys**
```
i  toggle info
 change scale
n  toggle noise/glitch
s  toggle shading
f  toggle colors
p  save 1 .png image
P  save 4 .png image
t  save 2d scene as .txt file
v  save voxel data as .txt file
c  hide cursor
f  enter fullscreen
```

Some visual settings can be set or changed through URL parameters; especially values for scale and fps will help adapt the project to different display sizes by adjusting character height and playback speed.

**URL parameters**
```
scale        pixel scaling
fps          frame rate cap
canvasWidth  force canvas width
canvasHeight force canvas height 
noShading    disable shading 
noNoise      disable noise/glitch
noColor      disable color
bgColor      background color (0x000)
voxelWidth   voxel width
voxelHeight  voxel height 
texture      custom texture (FTS)
```

## About
Topology is a joyful exploration into sound synthesis and visual music. It is also part of my long term exploration into additive synthesis and using the GPU to generate complex sounds and music with code.

The self-playing system operates on a set of parameters derived from the hash string associated with each unique piece. This information is represented as two shapes which are examined by points on their edges and the line forming between them. The same examination happens in both 2D and auditory space, creating a close mapping between the two.

## Interactions: 
- tap to toggle audio
- double tap to toggle orientation-mode
- tap and hold to cycle play-modes

## Technical
All sounds are procedurally generated and arranged with GPU code. Reverb, delay and compression is added via the WebAudio API. The renderer tries to render at full resolution, but gracefully drops fidelity until finding a stable FPS.

Spazio/Colore by Alessandro Fiore

There is neither painting, nor sculpture, nor music, nor poetry. The only truth is creation. (Umberto Boccioni)

daydream

'daydream' is a journey into the hazy space between the waking world and dream state, reality and simulation. The collection delves into the fundamental inquiry of what is real and uncovers the profound beauty that lies within the realm of the unknown.

space / double click: play / pause
f: fullscreen / 3:4 toggle
m: movement is a fun easter egg you can toggle on/off
s: save png

click and drag to interact with the depth and speed. the arrow keys will alter the simulation in additional ways.
