#13Is there a way to make it loop? (So that one only needs to record e.g. 20 seconds, after which it loops to save space)

#14IMO the most realistic generated psychedelic images were made by Google's Deep Dream 10 years ago. It seems like it's been mostly forgotten about after the advent of DALL-E, Midjourney, etc.
Agreed, it made some seriously wild stuff. Assuming you’re talking about this: https://research.google/blog/inceptionism-going-deeper-into-...
Here’s an example I generated in 2015:

#15I miss Winamp
It will never as glorious as it was back in the day, but Milkdrop 3 was released in 2023 and works on any audio on your system.
Is it cross platform?
Best thing about milkdrop was that you could use a microphone. We brought a projector and screen to a music festival (HSMF) in '04 and had a jam circle in our camp where the visualizations would respond to the music we were making. Definitely a hit way back when before that sort of stuff became boring.

#18Very nice! Reminds me of something I built on Shadertoy a while back: https://www.shadertoy.com/view/4ttGRf
Nice! Where does one learn how to do this kind of thing (aside from the fractals)?
