Pick of the Litter
color/palette/spectral.glsl
Polygon's spectral palette — emulates a prism split. Best for eye-melting color washes.
generative/snoise.glsl
Simplex noise 3D/4D. The OG fBM seed for everything procedural — terrain, plasma, clouds, breath.
color/dither/bayer.glsl
Ordered Bayer dithering. Cyan/magenta dot patterns at low bit depth — classic VJ look.
filter/kaleidoscope.glsl
Polar kaleidoscope mirror. Turn any input into a mandala in 4 lines.
math/rotate2d.glsl
2D rotation matrix. Boring alone, essential everywhere — pair with noise to make swirls.
color/blend/glow.glsl
Glow blend mode. Layer two scenes and watch them light each other up.
