KaleidoFieldVideo & Image Kaleidoscope Generator
KaleidoField is an interactive video and image kaleidoscope generator for transforming visual media into animated radial patterns, symmetry and experimental kaleidoscopic art.
How the process works
Adjustable mirror geometry reflects the source through repeating wedges. Source position, rotation and Auto Movement continually reshape the symmetry without altering the original media.
Inputs and source material
Import an image or video, or begin with KaleidoField’s generated light field.
Save and export
Save a PNG or record video. The Windows version also supports seamless output-loop encoding.
- 01Import an image or video, or start with the generated light field.
- 02Adjust the mirror geometry and source position. Use Auto Movement to explore changing symmetry.
- 03Choose the output dimensions and save a PNG or record video. Seamless output-loop encoding is available in the Windows app.
