A collection of image-driven shaders for VS-2 inspired by granular synthesis, sampling the natural world through stock imagery. Graphic slice patterns, noise displacement, and raymarched 3D grain clouds move through waveform oscillators, pixel-sort breakdowns, and turbulent feedback textures.
The aim was to create an Expansion Pack for VS 2 with a strong visual theme. Exploring the new imageTex variable recently introduced. This allows users to customise the look and feel using custom source imagery.
Utilising copyright free, open source code as inspiration & Claude to develop custom shaders.
Exploring themes of slice, stretch, smearing & shifting forms, fragmented glitch motion, noise patterns & waveform. ImageTex FX shaders drive colour & distortion while the VS-2 matrix drives motion.
VS-2 handles Modulation. The built in Matrix controls parameters & levels driven by Audio, Midi or LFO’s.
