Very nice, I could suggest two more factors influencing growth that are important for plants: geotropism and phototropism.

Geotropism basically makes plants grow away from the source of gravity, and phototropism makes them grow towards light (and that is usually reversed for roots).

I appreciate that it's beautiful and awesome, but when the complete screen was filled, I wanted a flamethrower option.

This completely killed my OS and nearly took the PC with it. It started running ok but as it filled the screen, the FPS dropped and then my browser stopped responding, then the mouse started moving VERY slowly and then the screen went black and my Bluetooth got disconnected. At that point, even long-pressing the power off button did nothing and I had to switch off the PC at the wall...

I am going to put the blame on Firefox and Linux Mint but it's honestly impressive how a simple animated simulation can do this.

It's beautiful. Both the general texture created and the wave effects.

I would love to be able to control speed. I am curious what the waves would look like at very high speed.

As a wallpaper, a slow speed would be great.

Nice work.

That's awesome! could you add a functionality so that I could control the color of the lines?

many years ago I used the safety filter data set from google quick-draw to do something similar with dick sketches.

This is very calming for some reason.
