Collaborated with Milkdrop to make a pack of 800 audio-reactive shaders.
Designed for VJs and visual artists. Anybody can use them with the open-source XorPlayer and Spout.
They work without audio too, great as moving backgrounds! Download:

Have fun!

Experimenting with advanced occlusion effects for Linework.
Configurable as 'render for X if occluded by Y'
Can be used to make enemies see-through for specific parts of the environment only.
