alt Hacker NewsShow HN: Artificial Ivy in the Browser
This is just a goofy thing I cooked up over the weekend. It's kind of like a screensaver, but with more reading and sliders. (It's not terribly efficient, so expect phone batteries to take a hit!)

Very nice, I could suggest two more factors influencing growth that are important for plants: geotropism and phototropism.
Geotropism basically makes plants grow away from the source of gravity, and phototropism makes them grow towards light (and that is usually reversed for roots).
That's awesome! could you add a functionality so that I could control the color of the lines?
It's beautiful. Both the general texture created and the wave effects.
I would love to be able to control speed. I am curious what the waves would look like at very high speed.
As a wallpaper, a slow speed would be great.
Nice work.
many years ago I used the safety filter data set from google quick-draw to do something similar with dick sketches.
This is very calming for some reason.
I appreciate that it's beautiful and awesome, but when the complete screen was filled, I wanted a flamethrower option.
