Published on 20 September 2008
An interesting set of interference patterns can be generated from the simple function sin(x2 + y2).
A little project to replicate in Flash the original work by Craig S. Kaplan.
Click and drag to change the pattern. Press shift while dragging to enlarge the pattern.
Press t to toggle through the pattern types.
Press s to save a high resolution PNG. It might become a little slow on some machines!
