NAME

6       interaggregate  -  Visualize  the momentary and aggregate intersections
7       between slowly moving circles.

SYNOPSIS

10       interaggregate  [-display  host:display.screen]   [-foreground   color]
11       [-background  color]  [-num-circles disc count] [-growth-delay delayms]
12       [-max-cycles maxr]  [-percent-orbits  percent]  [-base-orbits  percent]
13       [-base-on-center] [-draw-centers] [-fps]

DESCRIPTION

16       The  Intersection  Aggregate  is a fun visualization defining the rela‐
17       tionships between objects with Casey Reas,  William  Ngan,  and  Robert
18       Hodgin. Commissioned for display at the Whitney Museum of American Art.
19
20       A  surface  filled  with 100 medium to small sized circles. Each circle
21       has a different size and direction, but moves at the  same  slow  rate.
22       Display:
23
24           A. The instantaneous intersections of the circles.
25           B. The aggregate intersections of the circles.

OPTIONS

28       interaggregate accepts the following options:
29
30       -num-circles disc count (Default: 100)
31               Number  of  slowly  moving  and growing discs to use.  The more
32               discs, the more CPU power.
33
34       -growth-delay delayms (Default: 18000)
35               Delay in ms between drawing cycles.  More  delay,  slower  (but
36               smoother and less CPU intensive.)  art.
37
38       -fps    Display the current frame rate and CPU load.
39

ENVIRONMENT

41       DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.
42
43       XENVIRONMENT
44               to  get  the  name of a resource file that overrides the global
45               resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.

50       Setting the background to anything besides black confuses the intensity
51               algorithm and will look terrible.
