Arrows 1.0 Demo

This video is created from the screen capture of Arrows 1.0, a real-time virtual dynamic sculpture by Dominic Pukallus. It is an illustration of the emergent complex behaviour of a "flock" or "swarm" of thousands of coloured arrows flying through 3D space, each obeying very simple rules. The values given which govern the lines' behaviour are derived from a formula which is used in the computation of the Mandelbrot set. Watch for the "Rainbow Serpent" effect.

Download Arrows 1.0 for Windows from http://dgpukallus.web.officelive.com/Documents/Arrows1_0.zip

The soundtrack is from another work of Dominic's which is available free for download from http://www.last.fm/music/Dominic+Pukallus

You have very interesting visual work here... it is highly captivating :)

@ZeroGov Thank you! It looks much better when it's running on the computer.

No that's is some weird stuff. Hard to visualize for it's speed. yet it still provides a much better perspective about the world around us.

@whiterican74 Thank you. The video capture is much less smooth than the actual output because my computer had a problem running both the Arrows software and the screencap software at the same time...
