splatsong

A cloud-of-light cairn of true 3D Gaussian splats with a material you can hear. Drag to orbit; tap a cluster to strike it. Each cluster’s material is inferred from its splats and rings a modelled modal impact.

Six splat clusters — glass, stone, a brass bar, wood — float as a resonant cairn. Orbit by dragging. Tap a cluster and its inferred material sings a physically-modelled strike.

Sound starts on this tap (master gain ramps up from silence). The sculpture is already turning behind this panel.
