.TH Interaggregate 1 "08-Oct-04" "X Version 11"
.SH NAME
interaggregate - Visualize the momentary and aggregate intersections
between slowly moving circles.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B interaggregate

[\-foreground \fIcolor\fP]
[\-background \fIcolor\fP]
[\-num\-circles \fIdisc count\fP]
[\-growth\-delay \fIdelayms\fP]
[\-max\-cycles \fImaxr\fP]
[\-percent\-orbits \fIpercent\fP]
[\-base\-orbits \fIpercent\fP]
[\-base\-on\-center]
[\-draw\-centers]
[\-fps]
.SH DESCRIPTION
The Intersection Aggregate is a fun visualization defining the relationships
between objects with Casey Reas, William Ngan, and Robert Hodgin. Commissioned
for display at the Whitney Museum of American Art.
A surface filled with 100 medium to small sized circles. Each circle has a
different size and direction, but moves at the same slow rate. Display:
A. The instantaneous intersections of the circles.
B. The aggregate intersections of the circles.

.SH OPTIONS
.I interaggregate
accepts the following options:
.TP 8
.B \-num\-circles \fIdisc count\fP (Default: \fI100\fP)
Number of slowly moving and growing discs to use. The more discs,
the more CPU power.
.TP 8
.B \-growth\-delay \fIdelayms\fP (Default: \fI18000\fP)
Delay in ms between drawing cycles. More delay, slower (but smoother
and less CPU intensive.)
art.
.TP 8
.B \-fps
Display the current frame rate and CPU load.
.SH ENVIRONMENT
.PP
.TP 8
.B DISPLAY
to get the default host and display number.
.TP 8
.B XENVIRONMENT
to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global
resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.

.SH BUGS
.PP
.TP 8
Setting the background to anything besides black confuses the intensity
algorithm and will look terrible.
