Description

Kaleidoscope is a study in endless symmetry — a single source shape caught in a hall of mirrors, folding and turning into ever-shifting mandala geometry. Built as a self-contained procedural mirror system, it spins, zooms, and pulses through kaleidoscopic patterns on its own. Every control reshapes the reflection — the tilt of the mirror, the scale of the infinite zoom, the density of the color bands — so the pattern keeps moving and never quite repeats.

Usage Note

Built with native auto-motion and fully adjustable parameter controls, including optional audio analysis demonstration components. The system operates standalone with no external audio wiring required. To drive it with your own audio, route your audio signals to the corresponding parameters. All default and tested parameter ranges are documented in the DAT table.
