SETech engine / Eight wavelength bandsInteractive study in light
I
Light through glass
The prism beam follows the facets. Each wavelength exits at its own angle and reaches its own place on the floor.
II
Color from structure
The disc's tracks diffract light. A soap film a few hundred nanometres thick colors itself by interference as it drains, swirls and thins toward the pop.
III
A living sky
A physical night sky gives glass and film something to reflect and refract as the camera moves.
