Florestral — Audio-Reactive Noise Sphere in TouchDesigner (Iyakuh & Loli Cosmica)

Music: Florestral by Iyakuh & Loli Cosmica

A slow bloom of motion and reflection — sound sculpting light in ritual rhythm.

In this piece, I built a reactive sculpture using POPs operators in TouchDesigner, starting from a simple sphere and letting it breathe through noise deformation. Each fold, shimmer, and ripple follows the living pulse of Florestral, where earthy percussion and luminous synth tones intertwine like roots and stars. The result is a digital relic — part ritual, part reflection — that moves as if it remembers wind and water.

📽 Project Breakdown
• Constructed in TouchDesigner using POPs Sphere, Noise SOP, and audio-driven CHOP modulation
• Live amplitude data controls the noise scale, offset, and phase, creating expansion and contraction cycles synced to the rhythm
• Real-time feedback and environment lighting produce metallic reflections that flow like molten glass
• Color grading and post-bloom emphasize the track’s meditative intensity, glowing softly against a starfield backdrop
• The sphere remains whole, continuously reshaping itself — a single entity resonating with the music’s energy

🎧 Recommended Experience
Watch fullscreen, lights low, with headphones. The deformation follows not only the rhythm but the subtle spectral layers — low frequencies tug the form inward, high tones trace glints across its surface like forest light through mist.

✨ About the Music & Inspiration
Florestral carries a ceremonial energy — a meeting of grounded percussion and airy resonance. This piece channels that balance into visual form: an audiovisual offering to cycles of growth, decay, and renewal. Every motion is both a breath and a prayer — geometry turned to chant.
