Install the Bendage add-on, select a working camera for the Camera device, and start playback. JPeg, Safe Word and Xlippy read Camera:/ independently. The Grid shader places their outputs beside the unprocessed camera image and sends the mosaic to Window:/.

The saved JPeg Peggage value is about 89. A slow sawtooth LFO feeds two Micromaps: 10x changes Safe Word’s Fetish control, while 255x changes Xlippy’s Annoyance. Change these mappings or the LFO frequency to compare periodic modulation with manual controls.

These effects process images on the CPU; keep the input resolution modest. Without a camera, connect a video-file or shader texture to all three effects and Grid’s first input. No external video is bundled.
