View on XAn 80-second square WebGL2 film of a glass and gold-leaf mosaic whose tiles lift, flock into a fish, cranes and stars, then click back, with browser-synthesized sound.
The prompt behind it.
This work also used reference images, audio or other inputs.
Original prompt
Make an 80 second square animated film as a single HTML file, using WebGL2 and plain JavaScript, with no libraries and no image, font or audio files. It should look like a glass and gold leaf wall mosaic whose tiles were never glued down, so they can lift, flip, fly and click back into place. Figures are flocks of tiles, so a fish swims by its tiles swimming
