Artist Program
Bring Your Art
to IKANDY
If you make audio-reactive visuals — shaders, generative art, WebGPU experiments — IKANDY wants to see them. Selected work can be distributed in IKANDY with creator credit and a link back to wherever you send fans.
What you get
A clear collaboration
If selected, your scene can be bundled with IKANDY so people can experience it with their own music. We agree the scope in writing before it ships.
For as long as your work is included, we credit your preferred name and link in the app and on the website.
You retain ownership of your work. Any permission you give IKANDY is non-exclusive and limited to the written terms you approve before release.
How it works
The model
Find artists doing brilliant work, agree the distribution terms, and bundle it with credit. The goal is simple: more people seeing your art with a clear link back to you.
Accepted artists are credited by name on the credits page and in the app's About panel, with a link of their choosing.
What we're looking for
If it visualizes music, we want to see it
- 01GLSL fragment shaders — Shadertoy-style, the bread and butter.
- 02WebGPU compute scenes — WGSL, particles, fluids, the heavy stuff.
- 03Three.js / generative scenes — meshes, geometry, procedural worlds.
- 04Any audio-reactive visual you've made — if it moves to sound, send it.
- +MilkDrop presets accepted, but lower priority right now.
Before you submit
Read the Scene Contract
Every IKANDY scene has to be genuinely audio-reactive — that's the one load-bearing rule, and it's checked automatically before anything ships. The Scene Contract is the technical reference: the audio surface your scene receives each frame (bands, smoothed bands, kick/beat events, FFT), the lifecycle hooks per category (fragment / canvas2d / Three.js / WebGPU compute), the color-space contract, who owns which GPU resources, and exactly how reactivity is verified.
You don't have to memorize it to submit — send your work and I'll help fit it in. But if you want your scene to drop in clean, this is the spec it'll be measured against.

Email me
No portal, no form to wrangle — just an email. To make it quick to review, include:
- Your name
- Preferred display credit (how you want to be named)
- A link to your work (CodePen, Shadertoy, portfolio…)
- The link you want fans sent to (X, IG, store, site)
- A brief description of the piece
- A note confirming that you own the rights or have permission to submit it
Prefer to chat first? Find me on Discord. Reviewed personally — usually within a few days.
Artist submission terms
Short, specific, and in writing
- Submitting work does not transfer ownership to IKANDY.
- You confirm that you own the work or have permission to submit it, including any included code, images, textures, audio, or other third-party material.
- If we both approve inclusion in writing, you grant L&R Entertainment LLC a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to reproduce, technically adapt where needed for compatibility, distribute, publicly display, and promote that work as part of IKANDY and its marketing.
- You can request that we stop using accepted work in future releases. We will work with you on removal; copies already distributed may remain with users who downloaded them earlier.
The fine print
- Selection is at my discretion. Any future community-voting process will be announced separately.
- No money changes hands unless we agree otherwise in writing.
- Your attribution is preserved for as long as your work ships in IKANDY.
- You can request removal at any time; removal applies to future releases as described above.
