sketches/shift-1.webp

Shift 1

Horizontal pixel sort keyed on perceptual luminance with a relaxed threshold. Long, gentle streaks on photo plates.

sketches/shift-2.webp

Shift 2

Vertical luminance passes with a tighter threshold. Sorting breaks into thinner streaks that read finer on portraits.

sketches/shift-3.webp

Shift 3

Horizontal runs keyed on the red channel. Scarlet routes separate from greens so color itself becomes the mask.

sketches/shift-4.webp

Shift 4

Vertical sorting keyed on the blue channel. Cyan-indigo ribbons cut through the plate while warmer tones lag and smear.

sketches/shift-5.webp

Shift 5

Horizontal random-key sort at a very low threshold. Aggressive, glitchy reorder that shatters the image fastest.

sketches/shift-6.webp

Shift 6

Horizontal strips sorted on inferred color temperature. Higher gate than Shift 1 so bands stay broad, not hairline.

sketches/shift-7.webp

Shift 7

Vertical luminance at a high threshold. Only the strongest edges reorder, leaving long quiet runs between jumps.

sketches/shift-8.webp

Shift 8

Vertical luminance at a medium threshold: balanced density between sparse long runs and more saturated streak regions overall.
