Shaders Coded Live

Nine custom visual instruments, coded and performed in real time, mapped to hardware control.

Control schematic — not shader output. GLSL instruments are original work.

A concert performance needed a generative visual environment built and performed in real time. Nine custom visual instruments were coded during the engagement, mapped to a hardware controller, and operated live.

A control schematic, not a screenshot

This diagram shows the signal architecture — controller inputs mapped to shader parameters, each instrument selectable and triggerable, composited with a live iPhone IMAG feed filtered in Millumin, and driven through the show system. It documents how the system was built to hold up under live operation, where nothing can be re-taken.
