This work has been really useful in explaining what I’m working on in my final year architecture project. I was wondering if you might be able to help me save hours and hours of arithmatic with your program?

Can you please email me so I can describe the problem.

Just to give you an idea, I’m working with sound waves, consonance and dissonance in music etc. and I’m using the waveform to generate a form in space where each node(like the little drops in your animation) represents a certain frequency (and wavelength). I’m trying to work out the interference pattern from that to get the form, but it’s very laborious! If I could somehow input some specific numbers and adjust the rules slightly (i.e. no decay), and then snapshot it at the point where I want to extract the 3D form, that would be REALLY helpful.

Cheers, Chris.

If you have dual core CPU, install the most recent beta Flash Player, as it will, in fact, put both cores to use for a single piece of Flash.

On CPU-heavy Flash pieces, I’ll get maybe a 50% increase in framerate using the new player.
