Lucinate

About

Lucinate is a creative playground for algorithmic art, generative visuals, video synthesis, and image processing. Built for artists, coders, VJs, and tinkerers, it lets you explore the intersection of math and graphics — from intricate stills to evolving patterns, beat-synced visuals, and interactive shader art. Whether you're crafting generative textures, designing audio/MIDI-reactive visuals, or exploring the aesthetics of algorithms, Lucinate gives you the tools to turn abstract ideas into visual form. Dive in and discover new ways to create, play, and perform with color, form, and code. • Universal app for Mac, iPad, and iPhone • Built on Apple Metal • Layer-based with modular flexibility and blending • Bundled with parametric shaders for image adjustments, effects, texture utilities, coordinate space transforms, patterns, gradients, shader art examples, and more • Inspect, tweak, or code your own shaders using the built-in editor and extensive Metal Shading Language library • Use live camera, imported images or video clips as visual input • Record your results to video or export still images • Modulate any parameter with MIDI, LFOs, audio analyzers, and more • Sync visuals to the beat via Ableton Link or MIDI Clock • Receive audio from other apps via Ableton Link Audio • Supports external displays and projectors
