3 | | -This is an interactive experiment in **kernel-driven dynamics**. |
4 | | - |
5 | | -The system is simple: an iterative 2D convolution with a symmetric 3×3 kernel. |
6 | | -What is not simple is what happens when you start *moving* through kernel space. |

8 | 6 | Some kernels produce interference-like wave fields. |
9 | 7 | Other kernels converge into rigid, fractal-like structures. |
10 | 8 | Between them is a continuous space of unstable, hybrid, liminal behavior. |
11 | 9 |
|
12 | | -You don’t switch modes. |
13 | | -You **slide** between them. |

|
15 | | -At certain regions of parameter space, the system behaves less like a simulation |
16 | | -and more like a physical medium, where small changes in local interaction weights |
17 | | -trigger global qualitative phase shifts. |
| 12 | +This project is a direct descendant of [Fractogenesis: CA vs Convolution](https://github.com/xcontcom/fractogenesis) |

| 14 | +While *Fractogenesis* explores how fractal structures grow from minimal seeds |
| 15 | +using convolution and cellular automata, this repository focuses on |
| 16 | +**what happens when convolution itself becomes the object of exploration**. |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +The core mechanism is the same: |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +- start from a minimal seed (often a single `1`) |
| 21 | +- apply a small local convolution kernel |
| 22 | +- expand the field using padding |
| 23 | +- repeat |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +What changes here is the emphasis. |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +Instead of asking *“what pattern does this kernel produce?”*, |
| 28 | +the question becomes: |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +> **How does global structure change as we move through convolution kernel space?** |
