Demoscene Plasma
Interfering sine waves form a palette-cycling demoscene plasma in chunky low-res pixels, with the word bending the waves in inverted colors. A retro computer-art text effect for music, gaming and tech event intros.
Prompt · replace [TEXT]
Tool-agnosticRecreate the classic demoscene plasma effect behind [TEXT]. Fill the screen with smooth blobs formed by adding several sine waves (horizontal, vertical, diagonal and circular ones moving at different speeds), then color the result through a looping palette of deep blue, magenta, orange and gold that keeps cycling, so the bands flow without the shapes ever stopping. Render it at a chunky low resolution with visible square pixels and a fine ordered dither where colors meet. Set [TEXT] in a heavy blocky display face, also pixelated: inside the letters the palette is shifted to the opposite colors, the waves visibly bend around the letter shapes, and each letter has a black outline and a hard drop shadow. Endless, hypnotic, smooth.
