About

Dissonant Oscillation by dist.cs is a generative code-based work created with p5.js and custom shaders, capturing a quiet dialogue between tension and release. Gradient hues drift across the canvas in steady, pulsing motion—subtle shifts that convey a sense of perpetual transition. The piece combines feedback loops and chromatic aberration to produce a visual experience that feels both restrained and expansive.


What emerges is a meditative field where contrast becomes cohesion—where dissonance is not resolved, but held in balance. Dissonant Oscillation invites sustained attention, rewarding the viewer with an ever-evolving surface that resists final form, yet always feels whole.

Curator’s note

Like being gently rocked at the lapping shore of a dusk-filled ocean.
