Inspired by observing projections of light through a glass cup, Spotlight is an abstract exploration of how light interacts with various shapes and forms in 2D space. It has a strong focus on texture and the use of real world physics as generative rules.

3000 photons spawn on a blank canvas with set direction and velocity. Hidden on the screen, an arrangement of shapes populate the space. When a photon collides with the edge of a shape, it either reflects off or refracts through its surface, changing the photon's direction and color. These photons leave small circles along their path...the only drawn element in the artwork. This painting of light both reveals the hidden forms below and ties their chaotic arrangement together. The resulting image captures the motion and evolution of the light, generating beautiful gradients and layers, and creating the illusion of depth, shadows, and highlights. 

Press 's' to save a snapshot of the canvas, and 'd' to reveal outlines of the shapes.
This artwork renders live, from a blank screen to a filled screen. It may take a while to fully render. Best viewed in extra high definition.

Breathe You is an interpretation of the bond of love with another being, an unbroken circle full of light and color, together, still or spinning through this universe as time pushes forward with every shared breathe, in and out. Relax, stare, sync your breathing with the motion, become hypnotized and feel the love. This is the first work on Art Blocks to use only HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Chase Mints: Special versions may exist named Birth, Death, Rainbow or Golden. One or more might get minted or might not. Catch one if you can.

Breathe You

To become an Energy Sculptor, you first have to find your way into MU. Once arrived, an extensive period of trials will test your capabilities for earning the right to be an Energy Sculptor.

This project is part of The Realm of MU saga.

﻿Abstraction is a complex abstract artwork created in several stages where each new element drawn takes into account the elements drawn in the previous stages.

Abstraction

Paths is an animated journey across various subterranean and aboveground environments. To fully experience the project, you need to see it in high resolution with a capable GPU. Make sure that your browser uses your dedicated graphics card if any, and that you get a good frame rate. Control keys: 1-4 (change speed), 9 (fill aspect ratio), 0 (original aspect ratio), space-bar (play/pause)
