I particularly like the first couple of pictures. It's impressive to create such a visually stunning effect from random elements. Very neat! I particularly like the first couple of pictures.

Your work with the color bar as a controller and how configurable it is is a nice touch. It would be awesome (maybe for your next experiment :)) to make this an mp3 visualizer. Awesome stuff.

And, you're correct, the calculations do keep going when I pause the background—it really was set up rather quickly and the code is quite a mess, otherwise, I would post a working SWF and possibly even the code. I'll be sure to let you know if I do clean this up! Unfortunately, I don’t have this posted anywhere – it is an SWF.

Do you have a link to the SWF (or was it an AIR app?) that actually does this work. It would be neat to mess around with a bit. Also, I noticed that when you pause it, it seems like the calculations keep going, while it only freezes the current frame. When you click resume, the currently displayed image is the image calculated however far down the line the calculations are at the moment (but it could have also been a video playback issue) It shouldn't be too hard to implement a <b>real</b> pause control, and a simple "nextFrame", "prevFrame" so you can tweak the image to pause at just the right moment. I'll gladly do the code for it if you need a hand. In fact, I'm quite curious of the source and would love to take a peek. ;-) Andreas Very nice.
