@idle-screens/saver-tide

Passthrough tide screensaver for idle-screens: a rising water field that refracts, shears and floats the live page's own content. Seeded, paramSpace, control-track, frame-addressable.

Where the black hole point-samples each page block and moves it rigidly, tide evaluates the analytic Jacobian of its wave field at every block and hands the block that local affine — so text under water stretches, squashes and shears with the wave instead of merely sliding. Light blocks float up and raft on the surface; heavy ones sink out of focus.

Every parameter is a closed-form function of t (no integrated state), so renderFrame(t, seed) reproduces a frame exactly — canvas and page.

See the idle-screens repository for full documentation.
