A study of molten metal in the browser: layered noise folds light like liquid chrome.

Shape
Domain-warped noise gives the surface its slow, folding motion.
Light
Normals taken from the height field drive a cheap reflection and highlight.
Loop
All movement follows closed paths, so the video loops without a seam.

Everything runs in one draw call, so the piece stays smooth on laptops and phones and can sit behind a headline without fighting it.
