Sacred Strange
Fractal golden geometry with overlapping star motifs creating Doctor Strange-like dimensional patterns.
What is Sacred Strange?
Sacred Strange is a free WebGL web effect in the TappyPrism library. Fractal golden geometry with overlapping star motifs creating Doctor Strange-like dimensional patterns. It is rendered on the GPU by a fragment shader, so it costs almost nothing on the CPU and works well as a full-screen background. It ships as a single self-contained HTML file (sacred-strange.html) with zero dependencies — no npm package, no framework, no build step. It exposes 3 live parameters — Rotation Speed, Complexity, Dimensional Shift — adjustable in the browser or at runtime.
Parameters
| Parameter | Key | Range | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rotation Speed | ROTATION_SPEED | 0.05 – 1 | 0.3 |
| Complexity | PATTERN_COMPLEXITY | 0.3 – 2 | 1 |
| Dimensional Shift | PATTERN | 0 – 0.15 | 0.05 |
