Ring Canon

Two heads read Karel's one real take at decoupled time-bases — a canon of his own recording. The first head is his live voice, near-dry. The second, drifting head is that same take fed as the excitation into a bank of tuned modal resonators — high-Q filters on his own audio. He plays; the room he plays in answers, in canon.

press ring — his take rings the modal body at once · drag the canvas or use arrow keys

Press Ring the canon — his playing rings a tuned body that answers in canon.

input: Gamepad sticks (left-Y canon drift · left-X modal tuning · right-Y ring length · A cycles the take), with pointer drag + arrow keys as the no-gamepad fallback · output: Canvas2D — two orbiting read-heads on his loop and a corona of tuned modes that flare when his excitation hits their band · audio: his one real decoded take, two decoupled loop heads, the answering head resonated through a parallel high-Q bandpass modal bank tuned to the take's key.
