Generative worlds
Built around the music.
Live audio analysis drives evolving mathematical and particle-based environments. The shapes shift, fold and breathe with the sound.
A single frame from a moving, music-reactive field.
Visual range
One engine. Very different worlds.
Presets explore different attractors, palettes and ways of turning audio into motion.

Under the surface
Music in. Mathematics out.
music → audio analysis → mathematical systems → particles → visuals
Sibi Similis experiments with Hopalong, Rössler, Lorenz, de Jong, Ikeda, Clifford and related transformations. The maths is not decoration. It is the raw material the visuals grow from.
