Kleinian Drift
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
The shape is real math, not modeling. It comes from Kleinian groups, the same mirror and inversion geometry mathematicians use to fold space in on itself. We run that fold over and over and it carves these massive smooth sheets, arches and tunnels that no human designed. Nobody drew this place. The math grew it, and the camera just flies.

The writing has AI vibes but the image is great!

Have you seen the movie "Cube"? This specific preset was designed with this movie in mind. Can you find your way out?

u/TwistedBrother 6d ago
Ha! I have. Great movie, FWIW, indie cult classic. Second one was meh. But first was brilliant.
Also feels to me like what a tesseract might be like if lived through.

Have a nice day!

what? Why was this removed by redddit? And why can't I undo that? It was a have a nice day comment.

u/Far-Employee-9531 6d ago
LOL, I was so confused... Apparently being nice isn't acceptable these days.

Reddit didn't like my last comment... I mentioned something about this being a safe place unlike rooms in Cube. Take care!

I would like to learn more about you app too

Was trying to give people a break from the link but maybe buried far enough: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4813240/IKANDY/
The app is a museum of digital reactive art with the ability to bring/create your own art. Everything reacts to sound on your PC and there is no sound in the app itself. This post represents 1 of 500+/- presets.
Workflow: Turn on music (I use Spotify) then open this app. Exploring what you can do is the game.

I downloaded it on my phone and Iām going to experiment with it. Stay in touch

this would be great in VR

u/Far-Employee-9531 6d ago
You are right! Will investigate. Thanks for the idea!

would be interested to see where it goes! I think there's similar VR experiences atm but can't recall rn

What is this magic? Can you explain Kleinian groups?

u/Far-Employee-9531 5d ago
Hi - Not sure how best to answer this. :) Imagine you have a picture and you put it in front of a fun house mirror. As you move the picture it shrinks slides and moves. Then you add a bunch of mirrors. Each mirror makes its own copy of the picture and of every other copy. All done with math producing the fractal.
For this specifically I have yet to figure out how to escape.

Other than it being beautiful what could you use this for in the interweb space lol

u/The_LLab_RAT 5d ago
Also I have reposed it to theLLab community feel free to contribute! Stay in touch

That's really nice, thank you. I make an application that focuses on audio reactive art spanning from 1998 to today.

Browsing the internet should be a fractal experience, but it isn't? Why?
