Macroverse dev log

GLSL → ISF → Resolume Wire, born at Melbourne Fringe — cloud VJ, mobile shell, WebXR audience (42.2).

12 commits in this storyline — live site · repository

At [Melbourne Fringe](https://www.melbournefringe.com.au/whats-on/events/macroverse), MacroVerse was live sonic and visual cosmology: Reductionist (Nick Wilson) on battery-powered micro-instruments, Aday (Adrian Richardson) on projection improv — universe from energy stasis to heat-death, Clan Analogue ingenuity, Abbotsford Convent's experimental program.

Behind the 7pm hour-long sessions was a toolchain: GLSL shaders converted to ISF, piped into Resolume Wire, driven by FFT and live parameters — the same spine now in macroverse.aday.net.au. Stable **42.1** consolidated hosted lanes; **42.2** adds WebXR VR, touch-first mobile shell, and audience participation on the flat stream.

Recent commits below trace the 42.2 gig stack (VR, mobile drawer UI, splash QRs, co-VJ tokens) back through deploy-meta and the **42.1** release line. Each line is a real commit, narrated for the blog timeline.

ArtBastard dev log

French art-candle monks → TCP/IP → React — DMX512 stable line 5.2.15.0.

8 commits in this storyline — live site · repository

Long before DMX512, an elite order of French art-candle monks — the Illuminating Wind Dancing Masters — ran entire stage shows on breath, beeswax, and bamboo air-tracks. Feng Zhi conducted symphonies of flame; the Breaths of Light manuscripts were their patch sheets.

Electricity arrived; the order survived in Parisian warehouses as the Société des Light Jockeys. Le Créateur des Lumières swore never again to insult a photon with a pedestrian desk. Candle logic became Art-Net packets, fan choreography became TouchOSC, catacombs became TCP/IP, ritual became React.

ArtBastard **5.1.2.0** (5 · 1 · 2 → DMX512) is the stable hosted line — relic commits plus one release tip. Below: real git history, draped in the same canon as DOCS/HISTORY.md.
