  • This video took almost 40 hours to render in 4K resolution, but it can run realtime at lower resolution and quality settings. Everything was made with with the PySpace library. It's not really user-friendly, but if you're an experienced Python programmer that's interested in rendering your own fractals, you can check it out here:

      @@drmilkweed That is true, but you don't need high resolution on small visualiser and I believe there's still place for improvement on the side of performance, and if complexity of the fractal was too big, you can always create smaller one.

      @@karelmirim5547 from experience, I have to run marble marcher on the absolute lowest resolution on a machine that I just bought for $800. Dev and gaming rigs can probably do much better but as it stands, it's very very far from being optimized enough to be an on the fly visualizer. You'd also have to consider that the parameters being altered are very subtle on the scale of what this engine has been demonstrated to do. Things are just wiggling. Getting really trippy visuals, significantly changing the topology would take even more power. It's a neat concept but it's quite far from being a reality.

      @FTForgotten425 3 роки тому +5

      I was wondering, is there a way the fractals could interact in different ways to different frequency ranges, instead of moving all at once to overall volume changes? So instead of the whole shape moving in and out with the kick and snare, maybe some aspects move with those instruments, and other aspects move more smoothly with the higher synth melodies. Is there a way to make that work with fractal transformations?

    I'm just brainstorming here... it seems like you're
    mapping the audio track to a single [0,1] range, then
    using that range to change one variable in each fractal.
    What if you use [Fourier, im not sure which one] to bin the low/mid/high frequencies.
    I bet with a little trial and error you could find which variable controls small or large parts of the fractal.
    Map those to your audio frequencies, (small changes in the image = high intensity in the high frequency audio) and (large, preferably slow changes in the image = high bass)
    and you get an image that moves in the same sort of "visual/audio" frequency
