Hi! This is my little project introducing quasicrystals animations with some parameters. It uses a custom shader to allow higher resolution. Not all combinations look equally good. For example the "Spectrum" color palette IMO makes sense only for low values of "Tempo" and "Pattern Density". If you have VR googles, I recommend trying the WebXR version - it's really nice.

Of course this is amusing. It's also intended in Ig Nobel spirit.

It should’ve been obvious that after AI’s gained legal personhood, (which was not a popular idea but came much sooner than most people thought for the same reason corporations gained their’s) that over 60% of aging boomers opted to leave the wealth they had hoarded throughout their lifetimes to their AI caretakers. Now I know that might sound like an exaggeration but advancements in medicine brought longer life and an unforeseen consequence was that the mind often more and more would decline bef...
