RESEARCH ARCHIVE

This archive represents years of collected research at the intersection of liquid light art, kinetic visual systems, synesthetic experience, and the scientific frameworks that underpin them. Liquid light is not merely an artistic medium—it is a living visual language rooted in fluid dynamics, chromatic theory, psychophysics, and perceptual cognition. Each source listed here has informed our practice, offering insight into how analog optical systems create emergent patterns, how human perception interprets flowing color and motion, and how art and science converge in the exploration of consciousness, form constants, and visual music. From peer-reviewed studies on synesthesia and chromesthesia to historical documentation of 1960s psychedelic light shows, from quantum information theory to real-time audio-visual synthesis, this collection serves as both a foundation and an ongoing dialogue. We do not claim mastery over these domains—we are students in perpetual study. This archive exists to share what we have found, to invite deeper inquiry, and to honor the thinkers, artists, and researchers who have illuminated this field before us.
