Fluid Ink Feedback

Ink carried by a simulated fluid: kicks drop curling blooms, snares spin eddies and the hi-hats tear it into threads.

Ink Bloom

Each kick drops a curling bloom of ink into dark water, and the flow carries it on.

Classic Studio

Dye Injection

Many injectors, each on its own band and colour; the kick fires them in turn.

Classic Studio

Curl Swirl

A vortex turns round the centre: kicks feed it and snares spin off eddies.

Classic Studio

Filament Detail

Thin fast jets, and the hi-hats tear the ink into fine threads.

Classic Studio

Dissipation Veil

Veils of ink rise from below and fade almost as fast as they arrive.

Classic Studio

Marble Fold

Paint drops on a bath, folded into marbled bands by a comb that turns each bar.
