Interface
Pressing the ESC button while running the software on a computer will grant access to Dance to Forgotten Noise's interface.
Upon opening the interface, you will find details about the most recently generated image. The first piece of information you will notice is the Collection Number. This number serves as the seed for the image; you can use it to recreate the same image at any time. Without the seed, generating the exact same image again is nearly impossible.
The Pause button will temporarily halt the image generation at the current image. To resume image generation, click the Play button or refresh the page (note that the Pause button will change to the Play button).
The Change Speed button allows you to adjust the interval between image generations to 20 seconds, 10 minutes, or 1 hour.
Selecting Return to Last will take you back to the artwork.
In the Download Print Version option, you can save the current image in four sizes.
You can also find metadata for the current image in the right column. This metadata includes the name of the plant species, the base hue of the composition, the fictional location where it was discovered, and the fictional date of discovery.
To recover an image using the Collection Number, you must access the source code and make necessary edits. This requires some programming knowledge and ownership of the artwork.
