Easy to use

Controls on the left, canvas on the right. Jump right into a creative flow state.

autorenew

Immediate feedback

Perfect for quick jobs, but invites you to get lost in experimentation.

download

Export anywhere

Save stills as PNG, JPG, or WebP. With a paid Noisedeck purchase you get longer video, full resolution, and no watermark.

Creative flow workflow

A shader effect is a building block that generates visuals or processes input, rendering pixels to shape the final canvas output. Each effect has a unique function and controls for tuning the behavior. Easily place them together to create dynamic never-before-seen output.

Synths

Synths are the heart of your composition: the generators you use to seed the initial pixels.

arrow_and_edge

Mixers

Mixer effects combine synth visuals in a variety of interesting and novel ways.

function

Filters

Chain multiple post-processing effects to bring additional depth and complexity to your composition.

What's in an effect?

draw_abstract

Noise, shapes, and patterns

Explore a variety of approaches to shape visuals and create dynamic motion.

perm_media

Media input

Import your own images and videos to be transformed and remixed. Multi-camera input support included.

waves

Displacement effects

Add depth and distortion with tools for screen-space refraction, reflection, and more.

palette

Color blending

Make your visuals pop with easy-to-use palettes, blending modes, and creative color tools.

animation

Stateful shaders

Use evolving effects like video feedback and reaction-diffusion for organic, emergent designs.

scatter_plot

SMRTicles: Smart particles

Simulate up to millions of particles at interactive framerates, with modular and composable agent-driven behaviors.

Automation & control

Automation

Drive parametric automation with noise, oscillators, audio device input, and MIDI input.

autoplay

Autopilot

Let Noisedeck take the wheel and take over the visuals. Perfect for live musical performances.

Visual effects & overlays

lens_blur

Lens emulation

Give your visuals a hyperreal vibe with effects like distortion, chromatic aberration, and depth-of-field.

format_shapes

Text and decals

Easily overlay text, logos, or custom graphics to personalize your creations.

Technical stuff

web

Made for the World Wide Web

Noisedeck is built on the latest web rendering technologies, and we currently offer Noisedeck as a web-based app. We like it this way!

files

Supported formats

Noisedeck can currently export and import PNG, JPG, WebP, and MP4. MP4 export features frame-perfect fixed delta output for frame-accurate rendering.

timelapse

Size limit

Noisedeck was designed for short loops, and can currently export up to 60 seconds at 30FPS in Full HD, or still images and movies up to 15 seconds at 4K.

laptop_mac

Requirements

Any OS with a modern graphics card or Apple Silicon. We primarily develop under Chromium. Firefox on Linux is specifically not supported at this time. We are not optimized or testing for mobile devices at this time.

Open Source Core

Noisedeck is powered by Noisemaker, our open source rendering pipeline and effects library for creative coding.

code

Rendering pipeline

A complete rendering pipeline and effects library for generative art and creative coding.

palette

Visual effects library

Over 100 composable visual effects and noise functions. All effects target both WebGL 2 for backwards compatibility and WebGPU for future-proofing.

folder_open

Full source access

Complete access to the rendering engine and shader library. Fork it, modify it, learn from it. Use it in a web page, use it in an app. You can put it anywhere. Anywhere. Well, no, not there.

all_inclusive

Yours forever

Even without a paid Noisedeck purchase, your compositions are always yours, renderable and viewable with the open source Noisemaker framework.

Read the docs or try the interactive demo.

Meet Polymorphic

During late development of the original Noisedeck engine, we added a simple and expressive live-coding inspired language to let us define custom rendering graphs. It ended up reshaping how we designed effects, how we prototyped features, and how we thought about the whole app.

Polymorphic is a graph-based shader composition language. Programs compile to a DAG of render passes that execute as native GLSL (WebGL 2) or WGSL (WebGPU) shaders.

Try a standalone version of Polymorphic to see what it's about.

tune

Round-trip sync

Parameters in code automatically generate UI controls. Adjust a slider, the code updates. Edit the code, sliders follow. Switch freely between visual and textual editing.

label

Named arguments

Call functions positionally or with named keywords: noise(freq: 10, amp: 0.5). Self-documenting code that's easy to read and modify.

build

Purpose-built syntax

Our language, our rules. We tailor the syntax for a perfect fit: oscillators, hex colors, enums, inline arithmetic, and chainable writes, all native to the grammar.
