DRAG OR SWIPE TO DISTORT SPACE

Gesture Distortion

The hand as a lens: warping pixels with a swipe.

🧐 What do you see?β–Ό

Click and drag (or swipe on mobile) across the canvas. As you move your hand, a trail of warped space follows you. The horizontal lines of the grid will bend and stay distorted briefly before resetting.

🧠 Why this worksβ–Ό

This uses Real-time Path Tracking and Line Weight Modulation. By drawing onto a dynamic canvas and using the velocity of your hand to determine the "thickness" of the distortion, we create a sense of moving through a physical medium like water or thick air.

πŸ§ͺ Try variationsβ–Ό

Speed: A faster swipe creates a thinner, more precise distortion. A slow, heavy movement creates a wide "bow wave" across the grid.
