circular interference patterns.
Synopsis
moire2 [--display host:display.screen] [--visual visual] [--window] [--root] [--window-id number] [--delay number] [--ncolors number] [--thickness number] [--fps]
Description
Another example of the fun you can have with moire interference patterns; this hack generates fields of concentric circles or ovals, and combines the planes with various operations. The planes are moving independently of one another, causing the interference lines to “spray.”
