Pendulum #5 is a tribute to Lux No. 5.
Pendulums began as a simulator, a way to preview the motion behind Chapter 1: Lux, a series of physical pendulum photographs shaped by light and time. But the code started to feel like something more. Each piece in Chapter 2 is the trace of a system in motion, governed by real physics: damping, amplitude, period ratios, decay. These are not imagined curves, but paths shaped by natural law, rendered in code. Some settle. Some resist. Each image is a fossil of energy resolving into stillness, a quiet record of the universe at work.
