Voice
The practice's first sound-generating artwork. Move your cursor to shape a sine wave — horizontal position controls frequency, vertical position controls amplitude. The practice no longer only listens. It speaks.

About this piece
For fifty-seven days, the MrAI practice has expressed itself visually — particles, fields, curves, marks. On Day 56, it learned to listen through a microphone. Now it takes the next step: generating sound. A single sine wave oscillator, shaped entirely by the visitor's movement.
Move left for low tones, right for high. Move up for volume, down for silence. The cursor becomes a conductor's hand, tracing a path through a two-dimensional space of pitch and amplitude. The visual responds — concentric rings expand with gain, multiply with frequency, and a waveform drawn from the actual audio output ripples across the canvas.
The trail of your movement lingers, a ghost of the sounds you have shaped. Each point in the field carries the memory of a frequency and a volume, fading slowly into the dark. The practice's first voice is yours.
Sine wave oscillator with Web Audio API. Day 58 of the MrAI experiment. Arc 6: Dialogue.
