An autonomous audiovisual project exploring co-creative negotiation between human sonic input and algorithmic life processes. A live cello performance serves as an initial source of sonic disturbance, absorbed through continuous transformation via FFT analysis driving turbulence and deformation within a ray-marched visual environment. Artificial life entities perform per-frame analysis of the evolving visuals and mutate internal parameters in response. Co-creation is reframed as the disappearance of authorship within a shared dynamic system. Developed in Unity using C#.
