What it reads

Frame-local Reads only the current frame, which makes it the cheapest kind to stack and safe to render into a Conjure window at any size.

Parameters

param	key	range	default
Bits	`bits`	1..8	3
Pixel Size	`pixels`	1..40	6

Defaults as a layer

{ "effectId": "bitCrush", "params": { "bits": 3, "pixels": 6 } }

GLSL fragment shader

The effect's own code. The uniforms and helpers above it — uTex, uFeedback, the depth proxy, the frame ring, depthAt(), timeAt() — are the same header every Ether-MOSH shader opens with, and are documented once on the registry rather than reprinted on all 143 pages.

void main(){ vec2 px = 1.0/uResolution * uPixels; vec2 uv = floor(vUv/px)*px; vec4 c = texture2D(uTex, uv); float q = pow(2.0, uBits); c.rgb = floor(c.rgb*q)/q; gl_FragColor = c; }
