Starlit Manta
An eagle ray built from an inextensible wing membrane and a passive tail filament — 58,000 points solved per frame with Lambert shading and a living spot field.
Point-cloud Squid Shoal
Squids that swim by jet propulsion — mantles squeeze and stretch, arms trail, chromatophores flicker — schooling together until something startles them.
Four Jellyfish
Four luminous creatures pulsing on their own phases — one formula, the expression i%4·5. Change the hue, grow up to eight, and watch the bells contract on their own schedule.
Chaos Garden
Ten thousand points dancing on the edge of chaos — two irrational harmonics that never repeat. Re-seed the frequencies and an entirely new lifeform grows from the same three lines.
Fish School
Forty-three fish flexing their spines in stacked arcs — and when a fish's distance field spikes, the d⁴ term makes it dart. A bait ball that ripples.
Siphonophore Shoal
Sixteen colonial creatures with oscillating tentacles riding a figure-8 current — the exponent itself breathes, flinging and recalling every arm.
