Why Kaleidoscope Effect Works Here
Six-fold mirror symmetry
Every angle is folded into one base wedge, and alternate wedges are mirrored so the copies meet edge-to-edge without seams.
Movement becomes pattern
Anything moving in the frame repeats six times around the center, turning simple motion into a shifting mandala.
Vaporwave grade in the preset
The preset adds the Vaporwave cinematic LUT at 55% for pastel pink-and-cyan color.
Built for VJ sets
Pair it with Audio Reactive and Ghost Trails for visuals that pulse and smear to music — see the VJ visuals guide.
Heavier than color filters
The mirror remap runs on every pixel, so lower Resolution on slower devices.
Record loops
Export MP4 or WebM to use as a background loop.
