Field notes
The page explains that the patch is compiled into a small program evaluated once per pixel and once per audio sample, with edits reflected in both outputs. Position and time inputs come with defaults, so placing an oscillator can produce activity before any additional wiring. An assistant can edit the patch directly, render a strip of frames, and assess audio when the selected model supports hearing.
