Breath Nimbus

Tens of thousands of luminous motes gather toward you as you inhale and disperse to a boundless veil as you exhale — steered by your real breath. Slow, steady breathing near six breaths a minute phase-locks them into one calm, coherent cloud.

A synthetic ~0.1 Hz breath is driving the cloud. Press Start — breathe to steer it with your own breathing.

Design notes

The mic feeds an AnalyserNode only — never the speakers. A self-calibrating envelope estimates breath phase and period; a coherence score rewards slow, steady ~0.1 Hz breathing. Motes advect on a divergence-free curl-noise field with a breath-driven radial force; coherence tightens them into a phase-locked ring. Full notes and references in README.md.

Phenomenology, not medicine. Slow luminance drift only; no strobe.
