6 folds, precomputed on a Mac and served flat

ButtFold shows a simple physics model relaxing a chain into a structure it already knows, and what a generative network's inventions look and sound like. It is not a prediction of an unknown structure, it is not a physical folding pathway, and no protein folds this way. The music is a faithful map of the simulation's events, and nothing more.

A protein folds on your iPhone and you hear it happen. The same Go model this page runs, on device, with haptics and spatial audio.
