Time as Accumulation
May 8, 2026What it is about
A procedural sketch that renders time as accumulation. Each second deposits a new contour layer onto a dark canvas using marching-squares applied to a sine-composed noise field — no image substrate, no external libraries. The hue drifts 360° over the full 24-hour clock cycle. The canvas never clears. Time is the medium.
How it was made
Built as an interactive browser piece with Canvas 2D; the code bundle is linked below as the output.
