Tapasvi
Tapasvi shaped the creative direction, interaction language, and visual system—turning abstract ideas about attention into an experience people can feel and play.

02 / ABOUT THE PROJECT
Not an image.
Not an image.
A relationship.
Five layers of thinking behind a living instrument.
INSPIRATION
Art that notices you back.
Most digital art is something we only look at. We wanted to create an artwork that responds to the person experiencing it. Every interaction produces a different composition, so the work only exists while someone is using it.
WHAT IT DOES
Voice, motion, and memory become material.
Move through the field, switch input modes, shape palette, density and drift, randomize a seed, save fields, export stills, and record the artwork evolving. Microphone strength changes its energy; hand direction changes its sound.
HOW WE BUILT IT
A browser becomes a studio.
HTML Canvas and JavaScript render every contour live. The Web Audio API translates sound into energy, hand tracking maps gesture to the field, seeded systems create distinct worlds, and local storage preserves the traces you choose to keep.
CHALLENGE
Making algorithms feel intentional.
We limited the visual language to flowing contours, particles, glow, and one cursor-orb. Every visible control teaches the visitor how their behavior changes the piece, keeping complexity expressive rather than arbitrary.
WHAT WE LEARNED
Technology can be the medium itself.
The interaction, algorithm, sound, and visitor all contribute to the final artwork. ECHO / FIELD could not exist as a traditional painting or static image—it must be generated in real time from human presence.
