Effects Patterns

All effects · Using controls · Palettes

Generated from the running app by node tools/build-wiki-reference.mjs. Values are base defaults, before presets or audio modulation. Select values are zero-based indices in saved data; the UI shows labels. Ranges use the app’s stored units; controls marked as percentages may display a scaled value.

Truchet Tiles

Endless Truchet paths: quarter arcs, diagonal maze, woven ribbons and flowing dashed rings with smooth tile flips

Effect ID: truchet. CPU fallback declared: no. A declared fallback is a reduced compatibility path, not a promise of parity with GPU output.

Quasicrystal

Quasi-periodic wave interference with N-fold symmetry: smooth waves, interference stripes, polar rosettes and Penrose-like contours

Effect ID: quasicrystal. CPU fallback declared: no. A declared fallback is a reduced compatibility path, not a promise of parity with GPU output.

Op Art

Riley waves, Vasarely bulge, moire rings, zebra flow and kinetic squares in stark black and white or neon duotones

Effect ID: op_art. CPU fallback declared: no. A declared fallback is a reduced compatibility path, not a promise of parity with GPU output.
