TITLE: AEOLIA — a garden that plays itself
PROMPT: Create 'AEOLIA — a garden that plays itself', a generative wind garden: vertical metal and bamboo chimes hang from a curved frame; a wind field (perlin-ish gusts visualized as drifting translucent streaks) swings chimes; collisions strike pentatonic tones (WebAudio, gesture-gated — pure, bell-like synthesis with overtones) so the garden composes continuously and never repeats; petals and grass lean with the same wind; a slow sun crosses the sky. Palette: misted sage, ink stems, copper and silver chimes, pale gold light. Interactions: WIND slider from still air to storm (storm detunes slightly and adds rain hiss); drag any chime to displace it and hear it ring; drag to hang or remove chimes (length changes pitch); a NIGHT mode brings glowing lanterns and softer tuning; RECORD-A-MINUTE captures the session's melody as a scrolling score strip you can replay. Ambient generative music at its calmest.
DESCRIPTION: A self-composing garden: seven copper and bamboo chimes hang from a curved cedar frame, each a damped pendulum driven by a layered-sine wind field with random gusts; when a chime swings past threshold it rings its pentatonic tone through bell-accurate additive synthesis (metal: 1/2.76/5.4/8.9 partials; bamboo: harmonics) and flashes warm. Translucent wind streaks drift with the same field, grass sways, and a sun/moon hangs in pale gold light. The wind slider runs from still air to storm (storm detunes chimes and adds high-passed rain hiss); dragging a chime displaces and rings it manually; NIGHT mode regrades the whole scene to deep blue with glowing lantern halos; a Courier stave strip logs the last eight notes of the ever-unique melody.
TECHNIQUES: layered-sine pseudo-perlin wind field with gust events, damped pendulum physics with collision-threshold ringing, additive WebAudio bell synthesis with per-material partial series, wind-streak particle field, day/night scene regrading, melody logging to a note-name stave, pointer chime grabbing, gesture-gated audio unlock.
INTERACTION: Slide the wind from still to storm; drag chimes sideways to ring them by hand; toggle night for lanterns; mute for silence; watch (and hear) the garden compose — the melody strip bottom-right shows the last eight notes it chose.
