Hyperbolic Shader FAQs

Question 1

What is the Hyperbolic Shader?

Accepted Answer

The Hyperbolic Shader is a Linux application that displays interactive fullscreen GLSL shaders. It visualizes tilings of the hyperbolic plane, enhanced with real-time video textures from your camera, and offers dynamic control through Large Language Models (LLMs).

Question 2

How does LLM control work with the Hyperbolic Shader?

Accepted Answer

The application functions as an MCP server, enabling seamless integration with LLMs. You can issue natural language commands (e.g., "change background to black", "change geometry to plane") via an OpenAI-compatible LLM server and a chat client like Jan to dynamically adjust shader settings.

Question 3

What kind of visual customizations can I make?

Accepted Answer

You can configure various hyperbolic plane symmetries and representations (disk or plane geometry). The app integrates real-time video textures, and all these visual parameters, including colors and animation, can be modified instantly using LLM natural language commands.

Question 4

What are the requirements to use Hyperbolic Shader with an LLM?

Accepted Answer

You will need a Linux system, a camera for real-time video textures, an OpenAI API compatible LLM server (e.g., `llama-server`), and a chat client capable of communicating with both the LLM API and MCP servers, such as Jan.
