# Chladni figures

Visual style (Techniques)
Source: https://visual-gallery.asami.tokyo/en/styles/chladni-figures

Fine particles gather on the still nodal lines of a vibrating plate, forming symmetric patterns.

## Palette
- #07080D Obsidian (~82%)
- #F2D27A Pale gold (~10%)
- #4FD6E8 Cyan (~5%)
- #F5F3EA White (~3%)

## Visual traits
- Thousands of fine particles collect along thin curved lines; the rest of the plate is almost empty
- The lines form a pattern with mirror symmetry across both axes and the diagonals of a square plate
- Higher vibration modes give more, tighter lines; the pattern is a lattice of curved cells
- Glowing lines and particles are drawn with additive blending on a near-black background, so overlaps get brighter and bloom
- In motion, particles drift onto the lines and the figure switches when the frequency changes

## Prompt
Chladni figure: thousands of fine pale-gold particles gathered along the thin curved nodal lines of a vibrating square plate, forming a lattice pattern with mirror symmetry across both axes and diagonals, on a near-black background with additive glow. As video, particles drift onto the lines and the figure switches as the frequency changes.

## Avoid
sand on a real metal plate photo, random scatter, asymmetric, solid shapes, bright background
