this is wen in alt mode. I think through making, and explore through play. this is where i make things that feel more personal and instictive. a space for experimentation, fun, and other directions.

I did an interactive art show "Snail". This project wrapped up my 2-year journey in Arizona. It highly relied on the input of every audience, and every input was directly translated to the visuals and sound in real time. The dark room, the repeating sounds, and the visuals together created a sense of time and revealing. This project reflected where I was at during that time.
There were 3 elements: the input interface, the visual, and the sound. The input interface was an HTML file running on a local server to collect data points. TouchDesigner was the central brain to receive data, create visuals, and send signals to VCV Rack (a virtual synth module). The signals were then converted into voltage, controlling the sound pitch.

I'm a big music lover. I was playing around with different ways to make audio-reactive visuals, and testing object-oriented programming to control a particle system that reacted to the music.
Used FFT analysis to drive particle behavior. By monitoring different frequency thresholds, the script triggers global strobe effects and individual particle scaling. The color evolution is handled via lerpColor, synchronizing the visual palette with the real-time energy of the music.

Explored WebGL. yey. WebGL lets you build 3D environments that run directly in the browser. This project is inspired by the iconic "sliced horse" scene from The Cell (2000), reconstructing it into a haunting minimalist space.
The scene uses procedural loops and lerp() logic to drive its kinetic expansion, translating a cinematic vision into code.

Messed around with frame rate. A simple trick to start exploring new interaction patterns.
By moving the background function into setup, the canvas stops clearing and creates the brushstroke effect. Hover on the canvas to start, and press mouse to stamp!
