ARVIDTP  This is beautiful!

Especially when you turn up the density. Emergent complexity from simple rulesÂ…

Would like to see a Config option for crack/bg/sand colors/color ranges.

BLACKSMITH_TB  The color palette of the original was taken from a Jackson Pollack painting, titled Shimmering Substance.

ARVIDTP  Well, a good place to take a color palette from! I looked at some of the other algorithms at http://www.complexification.net/ and some are quite astonishing.
