I made shadercam to experiment with electrostatic dithering. It turns a webcam image into moving dots.

## Work and media

- [Electrostatic stippling](https://www.tomjohn.design/videos/stipple-cam/stippling.mp4): Dithering is dead. Electro-static stippling is king.
- [shadercam stippling a webcam image, with hand-tracking controls](https://www.tomjohn.design/videos/stipple-cam/webcam.mp4): now we’re getting somewhere. made with v0
- [shadercam running in a phone’s browser](https://www.tomjohn.design/videos/stipple-cam/mobile.mp4): Oh man it works so well on mobile this is cool
