Face Moiré

Lumen & Logic

Encodes a procedural face into a line-grating moiré pattern. Two layers of vertical sine waves interfere: the background layer is uniform, while the face layer is phase-shifted only within the face geometry. The human eye picks up the subtle interference contrast as a shape, revealing eyes, nose, and mouth without any figurative drawing.
