Floating Points
This project proposes a generative visualization in which a De Jong attractor (unpredictable mathematical formula) reacts in real time to an audio file. Using an FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) algorithm, the low, medium and high frequencies of the music are analyzed and translated into organic visual forms. The user can interact with the installation using sliders to adjust the visual and sound parameters, creating an immersive, dynamic and personalized experience. Made with Processing.
Characteristics
Language: Processing
Libraries: processing.sound, controlP5
Math equation: De Jong (sin/cos)
Real-time extraction of low, mid, and high frequency energy (using indices 5, 100, and 300 of the FFT spectrum).
Interactive Parameters:
• Number of points (pMax)
• Minimum and maximum particle size (sBaseMin, sBaseMax)
• Visual trail intensity (fadeAlpha)
• Attractor coefficients A, B, C, D (influenced both by the user and by the sound)
