Description

CIRCADIAN - Living Art Synchronized to Your Biological Clock

TECHNICAL DETAILS: • Real-time rendering via WebGL fragment shaders • Fractal distortion algorithms and procedural noise • 4K resolution (3840x2160), 60fps • Fully on-chain, no external dependencies • Every frame computed on GPU - not a gif or video

HOW IT WORKS: The artwork detects your local timezone and cycles through three phases:

LIFE PHASE (06:00-10:00 | 4 hours): Hand-drawn cubist composition in its purest form. Pristine, vibrant, geometric.

DECAY PHASE (10:00-02:00 | 16 hours): Fractal distortions consume geometry. Colors shift toward death tones (red/orange). Surface breaks apart like aging skin. Chromatic aberration intensifies. The second law of thermodynamics visualized - entropy increases.

HEALING PHASE (02:00-06:00 | 4 hours): Chaos reverses. Order returns. Slowly regenerates overnight. Reborn at dawn.

UNIQUE EXPERIENCE: Decaying in Istanbul while living in Los Angeles. Same artwork, different lives, alive at the same moment. Every viewer experiences their own 24-hour cycle.

DEEPER MEANING: Deep in the fractal distortion, original hand-drawn faces remain hidden. Traces of life, like fossils. Proof that identity never disappears - it only transforms.

This is entropy in motion. A 24-hour rebellion against the heat death of everything.
