doppler : Built with Processing

To view this content, you need to install Java from java.com

WINDOWS USERS: I don't think this will work for you, because I used the java vector math libraries, and it turns out those aren't installed by default on your computers. At least that's my theory, anyways, until I fix it you'll just have to go without the doppler effect. Sorry.

Simple Doppler effect simulator. Drag the sliders to change the speed of "sound", the frequency of the source, and the resolution of the simulation. The velocity of the source, and hence the amount of doppler shifting is determined by its distance from the center. Click to reposition it.

Source code: doppler

hairball : Built with Processing

Source code: hairball

Built with Processing

Click to add hairballs. Press 'c' to clear, and 'g' to toggle colour.

Really dense hairballs slow it down, just clear it to speed it back up.

Inspired by Context Free and by the Grid programs at bodytag.org,

Finally, thanks to Dave Bollinger for some tips which sped it up drastically.
