Depth displace applied to FRCTL's test image: Estimates depth from the frame and pushes it into real geometry.

Geometry effect

Depth displace

Estimates depth from the frame and pushes it into real geometry.

Runs live on video, images, a camera or generated art. Stack it with any other effect, and route LFOs, envelopes or any of ten audio bands to its controls so it moves with the music.

Controls

Mode
Continuous relief, quantised cutout planes, or a recessed void.
Depth
How far near and far pixels travel apart.
Swing
Camera orbit around the displaced frame. Held still under reduced motion.
Focus
Depth that stays put; below it recedes, above it advances.
Edge
Whether steep depth steps stretch like a sheet or tear open.
Speed
Rate of the effect motion. Centre is the authored speed, hard left a tenth of it.
