four frames from a stained-glass window as the light moves through a whole day under a synthetic pointer — with the ghost pointer

Brief

The canvas displays a complex, fixed structure of geometric stained-glass panels. The primary visible effect is the movement of light through this structure. As time passes, intense beams of color sweep across the glass. Where the light beams intersect the internal edges of the various geometric pieces, they create vivid, glowing halos. These halos expand, contract, and shift angle slowly, following the trajectory of the sun across the sky. Although the shapes of the stained glass remain static, the position, intensity, and glow of the illuminated edges continuously change, simulating the passage of a full day.

Artist's statement · qwen3-coder:30b-a3b-q4_K_M, unedited

This sketch creates a dynamic stained-glass simulation that evolves through a full day's cycle. The composition features 80 geometric panels of varying shapes and colors arranged across a dark canvas. As time progresses, sweeping beams of light traverse the structure, illuminating the internal edges where they create glowing halos. These halos expand and contract while shifting in angle, mimicking the sun's trajectory from dawn to night. The scene transitions through warm morning hues into cool evening purples, with the entire effect rendered in real-time using WebGL for performance. The viewer experiences a continuous, immersive visualization of light moving through architectural space without any user interaction.
