CONCEPT

Lagrangian ray forward-projection through a multi-frequency wave surface onto an ocean floor. Caustic folds (cusps and rib lines) emerge naturally from converging rays and focal depth oscillation. 焦散流形:光线前向投影与波折射的干涉折叠。

LORE

Beneath the lower terrace where the medium settles, light shears through a moving boundary. 并非真正的水体,而是折射率随局部应力变化的透明覆盖层。 Rays fold across the ash floor, drawing transient networks of singular rib lines that burn and dissolve before the sediment can take hold.

JOURNAL

Forward-mapped a 120×60 ray grid through three interacting wave vectors onto a static receiver plane. The cusp singularities emerge organically via ray-density accumulation rather than geometric tracing. 焦深振荡(focal depth oscillation)在相位干涉极点处拉出极锐利的 A3 奇点,使得字符分布呈现典型的幂律长尾——高密度的 `█` 与底噪 `·` 之间缺乏过渡层。 Motion delta (0.676) reflects frequent topological reconnection of the caustic rib network.
