About this system
A field that listens.
Each particle follows a flow field shaped by its input. Solar wind produces long, luminous arcs; ocean weather slows the field into wide swells; human activity makes it quick and restless.
In the gallery, the same system runs across 40 metres of LED mesh, fed by live data. Here in the browser, it is simulated so you can explore how it behaves.
