NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

       interaggregate  [--display  host:display.screen]  [--visual  visual]  [--window]  [--root]
       [--window-id  number] [--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 relationships 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.

       --visual visual
               Specify which visual to use.  Legal values are the name of a visual class, or  the
               id number (decimal or hex) of a specific visual.

       --window
               Draw on a newly-created window.  This is the default.

       --root  Draw on the root window.

       --window-id number
               Draw on the specified window.

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.

       XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW
               The window ID to use with --root.

BUGS

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