Critical Brain
A visionary instrument built on a real 2D Ising model. Drag a “consciousness temperature” through the critical point Tc ≈ 2.269 and feel order melt into the edge-of-chaos bloom, then into overload.

Headphones recommended. Audio is limited for your ears and only starts on your gesture.

Drag up to heat the lattice. Watch |M| collapse from ~1 (one frozen domain) toward 0 as you cross Tc — the correlation length diverges right at the bloom.
