A generative algorithm propels a delicate ray of light forward until it bounces from the imaginary boundaries of the image. A study of reflection, refraction, and materiality.

A delicate white ray approaches the frame of a dark picture, bounces off and changes direction. The ray begins to ramify into a geometrical shape. Various algorithms became the co-authors of this generative work that explores the physical laws of reflection. The code-generated soundtrack reacts in real time to the gradually transforming sequences of figures.
