Magic Music Visuals

Making up for lost time? Just few of my experiments to audio by SNDR "I Should". Sorry its rough on the outro intro, just wanted to get it up and done to share.

Just a note: Audio was added with permission directly from the artist.

I like it!

Did you use the ISF LIDAR for the "Peace" text sequence?

Hi Art, Thanks and good eye Yes that is exactly the shader, I had to layer with another chain using SyzGL_Iterate to give it more presence plus I was concerned about video compression taking off sharpness and vibrancy, I love anything that even remotely resembles Rutt Etra visual synths

Thought so. I hacked the controls into that and I'm happy to see it in the wild.

It was converted with the ShaderToy to ISF script, and is based on the ShaderToy "Interstellar" https://www.shadertoy.com/view/Xdl3D2 by TekF, a warp drive thing. I loved that the original coder based the point positions on a texture as opposed to a formula – it made it really versatile.

I just made some more tweaks to that shader. I've added a SAMPLES param to crop the size of the grid, and a CHUNKINESS param to scale the dot sizes. Along with the GAMMA, it should enable you to give it a LOT more presences.

Nik it's really great now, much more pronounced! Seriously huge difference, I appreciate your efforts. Now if we can just port those latest Bokeh blurs over from shader toy I know, give them a pinky....

For those interested Niks port of the the Lidar Shader with modifications is here

Lets pray we dont loose the shader toy connection, it looks like AutoDesk flame | Inferno systems are also using them to develop Effect chains, that's good company to keep.

Below is patch chain I created for the community, its a breakdown of how to create a classic Winamp style visuals in 4 simple easy to follow tabs, you will need Resolume installed for one of it's effect nodes, "SyzGL_Iterate.dll" to be specific, I needed that to create Mograph (extremely popular these days) style sweeps of the single wave form in 3D space.

Hey,

I ported a Bokeh filter last night. It's based on Dave Hoskins' "Bokeh Disc": (https://www.shadertoy.com/view/4d2Xzw)

It's not perfect, but it's better than no bokeh.

Sorry I got really caught in up in other stuff. Very nice! I am currently trying to adapt the newer bokehs because they are very, very smooth but I do appreciate your efforts none the less. I promise if I can get the new bokehs to work, I will share them with everyone but even If I chain the buffers ( the additional tabs in Shadertoy code) sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, the weird thing is some of the multi buffer shaders work just passing video through a single buffer and not the whole array of a shader. I used your version as a texture for the video below.

* I removed the video, new videos later in this post.

I spent some time messing with a three pass Bokeh shader from Shadertoy. I tried combining all buffers into a single shader, without success.

This is a single pass of the algorithm. It's a fast circular blur, bokeh like, but not quite there: https://www.interactiveshaderformat.com/sketches/1191.

Hmm that last one came out really muddy and awful so I reworked it into this one, still very abstract but brighter. Going to take that old one down. Better audio also I think. I remixed it myself, a remix of a remix
The Bokehs will come soon I am going to try to get it from the source. If not, I can work on manually created shader chain from the paper sloppy, but it may work.

Metropolis version
btw Stunning work by Nik

Dude your amazing, these blurs are incredible, on par with after effects, very, very nice. Will definitely be using this in visual scenes going forward.

Also here is a blog with a Blur that has Depth of Field:

It is loaded with source code he shares openly, just a heads up. Will be posting another video soo-nish and maby some more interesting stuff
