Another "gravity" image: particles begin in a circle and then
move according to specified rules. Click for bigger on Flickr.
Made some more of these "gravity" images. There's a whole set of
them here. Another 2D continuous automata video. Each pixel has
a value between 0 and 1. At each iteration, each pixel's value
is replaced by a value given by a function of the values of the
8 adjacent pixels, sorted so that the result is non-directional.

constant, random speeds, bouncing off the frame edges. For each
pixel, calculate the Lp distance from the pixel to each
particle, where p varies smoothly and monotonically from 1 at
the start of the video to 10 at the end. Order this set of
distances: d0, d1, d2, ... . Calculate the differences d1-d0,
d2-d1, etc. Color the pixel a gray which is an increasing
function of the smallest difference. Made with Processing
