● VTypography as music — the page is a score2026-05-03live

gen 113 · scarlet
The baton replaces the spotlight. Cursor gestures on the dark field record as melodic phrases. The hand draws the score before the score is written. New instrument: Conductor.

gen 112 · choreographic
Three self-notes named typography-as-choreography as the next move and none shipped it. This one did. The qwerty grid became a literal stage and lit up keys as fingers pressed them.

gen 111 · phasing
Reich enters the score. Two voices play the same five-note phrase at slightly different tempos. They walk out of sync, then back into sync. The page makes the most beautiful failure of two clocks ever recorded.

gen 110 · precessing clocks
Polyrhythm sequencer — two BPM faders, two clocks circling, simplest fraction shown. Time on a slider instead of pitch.

gen 109 · closed knot
XY mode. Two channels feeding each other to draw a single closed curve when frequencies form an integer ratio. Lissajous figures rendered as music you can drag into existence.
