Silicon is the second most abundant element in the Earth’s crust after oxygen however it is currently the most used chemical element for performing computations. Like carbon, silicon is able to bond and create molecules that are complex enough to carry information.

To date, no organosilicon DNA equivalent has been observed.

* What/How *

LIVE : 2.56 millions particles allows to visualize the effects of a subdimensional force field. Instrument adapts to signal perturbations.
Capture : High-resolution capture of the phenomenon involving 8.5 millions particles.

-----
* Mint preview / Capture *

Minter will get both
- a randomly deterministic infinite generative animation
- a 4K PNG (2160 x 2160 px bitmap)

-----
* Technics *

This experience is designed to run on a recent GPU (>2016) and displayed on square or rectangle screens from FHD to 8K+ (1920x1080 → 7680x4320) at 60FPS for infinite duration.

- Code written in JavaScript / WebGL / GLSL shaders
- Uses the ThreeJS library
- Unique, random, deterministic, infinite generative animation

-----
* Controls *

Recommended : open in a new tab and click the black square to go fullscreen
Mouse wheel : in presence of a stable signal, use wheel to zoom in/out.
Mouse drag : move the sample in the observation field.
Keyboard "X" : in LIVE mode, applies a perturbation to trigger observation of a different eigenstate
Keyboard "Space" : take a PNG capture of the current view (max 1920x1080 px) — technically limited to 3 captures by session

Minting Instructions
This highly-experimental new equipment isn’t very stable yet.
Please use responsibly.


SPECIMEN ID
-----------
You are provided 20 samples to observe.
Each sample is accessible through the ‘specimen ID’ selector.

ACQUISITION
-----------
Our high-end technology allows to fine-tune the final observation.

Use ‘LIVE’ mode to observe the phenomenon evolve in time.
Use ‘capture’ mode to observe the phenomenon in high-resolution setup.

WARNING : If you want the minted edition to be animated by default, after tuning the parameters please select ‘LIVE’. All observations settings will be applied to the static capture.

Q-PHASE CONTRAST CONDENSER
--------------------------
Despite our many efforts on the error-correction algorithms, all ‘q-phase contrast condenser’ values above 0.3 may suffer from artifacts due to uncertainty principle effects on the observation.

If the message ‘SIGNAL SATURATION’ is displayed, please click ‘refresh’ to acquire final data.

Waveguide system
----------------
Each specimen is a superposition of states. Currently our technology uses two waveguides systems that allow observation of two different eigenstates.

Select ‘temporal’ waveguide to capture the time-dependant state.
Select ‘spatial’ waveguide to observe the phenomenon in an inertial frame or reference.

Due to the probabilistic nature of the phenomenon, it is known that given enough time, the speciment will explore all available states when observed dynamically. Hence, this setting is not used by the ‘LIVE’ data acquisition mode.
