THE PHASE EXPERIENCE
EPISODE 0: COMPLEX ASSEMBLIES
→ https://complexassemblies.danslesnuages.xyz


Welcome to this new experience.

None of the structures you are about to witness have ever been observed before. By running this program in your browser, you become the potential discoverer of new and previously unseen forms.

Once the program starts, the autonomous algorithm will endlessly generate and interact with spatial configurations involving 15000+ elements.

If a particular configuration catches your eye, press the SPACE bar to begin your exploration. The autonomous algorithm will pause, giving you the freedom to examine the structure from all angles, including from within.

Your exploration vessel is equipped with two tools, accessible via the LEFT and RIGHT mouse clicks. These “entropy operators” allow you to interact with the structure's order. The left-click decreases the system’s entropy (increasing its order), while the right-click disturbs the elements along the operator’s path.

Each time the program is launched, a similar experimental setup is generated, but with some unique characteristics. For example, we are working on developing an external non-perturbative light condenser (not an easy task!), but it doesn’t always function as expected.

Additionally, the entropy operator accessed via left-click presents two variations: automatic or manual. In EXPLORE mode an entropy gauge appears in the lower-left corner of your screen. When the value reaches <0.01 nJ a new structure becomes available. We are also developing an automatic entropy operator, but it is only available in certain iterations.

To switch between automatic and manual modes, simply restart the program with a new hash.

This may all seem a bit random, and we apologize for any confusion. This new technology is still in its infancy, but rest assured that the entropy operators presented here are the most advanced currently available in the galaxy.

By activating this program, you become the master of a unique physical experiment, where each observation could challenge the current state of knowledge. If you observe anything unusual or if a particular specimen seems noteworthy, feel free to take a screenshot using the ENTER key and submit it to us for further study. We encourage you to share the results of your observations and interactions by using the hashtag #thephaseexperience. A specialist may be able to provide additional insights.

A final note: due to quantum instabilities, the currently observed structure may vanish when exiting EXPLORATION mode. The autonomous algorithm will resume, and new structures will emerge.

Please note that the program's authors bear no responsibility for any damage resulting from improper use of the software or its consequences.

We hope you make fascinating discoveries and remain at your disposal for any questions.

Kind regards,
H
