CONSTRAINT-BASED COMPOSITION

The Constraint

After Matthew Shlomowitz

Scroll to begin

x(t) = A·sin(a·t + δ)
y(t) = B·sin(b·t)

The Rule

One element. One constraint.
Watch the rule execute.

Same rule. Different phases.
Complexity from simplicity.

Move your cursor.
You are part of the system.

δ = 0.00

Position x = sin(3t + cursor.x · π)

Phase y = sin(2t + element.phase)

Radius r = 0.3 + scroll · 0.1

The constraint was you.

For one moment, synchronization.
Then divergence, forever.

"Something like the bastard love child
of Brian Ferneyhough and Philip Glass"
