new toy: ray-color 🎾 generative palettes from a raytraced scene: one sphere, a five-sided room, three lights, mirror walls. drag the lights, harvest the colors. palettes stay coherent because every swatch is the same light in the same room.

this started with my hue lights: every time I changed the room color, the tennis ball on the table turned into a completely new palette. same ball, new colors. so I built the room, a tiny raytracer where you don't pick colors, you place lights and sample them off a sphere 🎾💡

generative color palette idea: instead of editing colors, you edit the conditions they exist in. sample points from a raytraced scene. Move a light and the whole palette shifts together. coherence for free.
