Cellular

Audio-driven cellular automata and organic living-tissue patterns

2D CanvasMediumBest for: Ambient, Experimental, Biology, Generative

Cellular uses audio data to seed and evolve cellular automata patterns in real time. Bass frequencies trigger new cell births, while treble governs die-off rates, producing organic growth and decay cycles that mirror the energy in your music.

Tips & Best Practices

  1. 1

    Growth mode on slow, evolving tracks creates hypnotic spreading patterns.

  2. 2

    Fracture mode is explosive — best for high-transient percussive content.

  3. 3

    Small cell sizes (4–6px) create dense, detailed textures.

Export Performance

CPU-intensive at small cell sizes — use 8px+ for smooth 60fps export.
