Sand Plate
The signature cymatic: grains that genuinely migrate and pile along the nodal lines.
How Sand Plate moves with your music
Every kick throws the grains back up, and they re-sort as the figure changes.
Like every Luxaudica scene, Sand Plate is generative — drawn live from the music rather than played back from a file — and deeply reactive: bass moves the big shapes, treble the fine detail, and the song's build-ups and drops steer the whole arc. It holds one intentional colour family per moment and shifts with the song's harmony, and it settles when the music stops.
