    // THE LOOK LIVES HERE. This block is not a reference to the
    // engine's shader — it IS the pixel math this effect runs.
    // Rewrite it and the effect looks different; everything else
    // (geometry, motion, the content coupling, the beat) keeps
    // working, because the block SUBCLASSES the engine shader.
