Source node
Image Source
Drag a photo, PNG, JPEG, TIFF, or BMP straight from Finder onto the canvas and it becomes a live texture. This is the simplest way to get your own artwork, logo, or photography into a patch.

What it does
Image Source is a source node: it makes a picture from nothing, so it sits at the start of a visual chain. It has no input and gives picture out, so it starts a chain.
Try it
Drop in a piece of your own art and run it through a Kaleidoscope for an instant looping visual.
