NAME
interaggregate - Visualize the momentary and aggregate intersections
between slowly moving circles.
SYNOPSIS
interaggregate [-display host:display.screen] [-foreground color]
[-background color] [-num-circles disc count] [-growth-delay delayms]
[-max-cycles maxr] [-percent-orbits percent] [-base-orbits percent]
[-base-on-center] [-draw-centers] [-fps]
DESCRIPTION
The Intersection Aggregate is a fun visualization defining the rela‐
tionships between objects with Casey Reas, William Ngan, and Robert
Hodgin. Commissioned for display at the Whitney Museum of American Art.
A surface filled with 100 medium to small sized circles. Each circle
has a different size and direction, but moves at the same slow rate.
Display:
A. The instantaneous intersections of the circles.
B. The aggregate intersections of the circles.

OPTIONS
interaggregate accepts the following options:
-num-circles disc count (Default: 100)
Number of slowly moving and growing discs to use. The more
discs, the more CPU power.
-growth-delay delayms (Default: 18000)
Delay in ms between drawing cycles. More delay, slower (but
smoother and less CPU intensive.) art.
-fps Display the current frame rate and CPU load.
ENVIRONMENT
DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.
XENVIRONMENT
to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global
resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
BUGS
Setting the background to anything besides black confuses the intensity
algorithm and will look terrible.
