Liquid effect

Fluid Ink

A real fluid simulation drags the picture around and carries ink through it.

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

Motion

Kick
Strength of the burst from the middle. Route this to a bass band.
Swirl
How much the fluid curls back on itself instead of smoothing out.
Warp
How far the current drags the picture.
Ink
How much visible dye the fluid carries.
Hue
Ink colour.
Settle
How quickly the current runs out of energy.
