Generative animated artwork made using shader feedback and pixel quantization.

WRAPPERS is a study of virtual surfaces and textures. It explores the tension between hard and soft forms and parallel projection, where the illusion of perspective is flattened into a highly geometric composition. These geometries feature a flowing texture that runs infinitely, reflecting on the endless nature of virtual space. The project blends together imagery from early computer terminals, video games, and ascii art to produce a dynamic, intricate, visual experience.

WRAPPERS is very GPU intensive. For a smoother experience, you can change the scale by adding the parameter "?scale=2" to the URL.
