<DitherEffect effect="plasma" />The classic demo-scene plasma: four sine fields summed and smoothed through the palette. scale controls the density of the pattern.
The props group like this:
Texture: scale.
Examples
Fine grain
Double the scale for a denser, cellular pattern.

A two-colour palette snaps the plasma into a duotone print.

Notes
- Decorative and
aria-hidden. Put real text on top of it, not inside it. - With reduced motion it draws one still frame at 5s and stops.
- It pauses when scrolled out of view or when the tab is hidden.
- It shares one WebGL context with every other ordered effect on the page.
