VISUALS

Pure GLSL, designed and tuned by hand, rendering live.

Every piece is a hand-written fragment shader, built for my own live rig, Slipshade. No diffusion, no AI imagery. Every frame is math.

Slipshade: the rig // THE RIG Slipshade These aren't just loops: every piece is a real-time shader, and Slipshade is the VJ instrument I built to perform them live, on stage: audio-reactive, MIDI-mapped, cue-able. Inside the rig Other works // PROJECTS Everything else I build Apps, tools, and systems: the rest of the workshop behind the loops.
