It’s always been an absolute mystery to me how the hell these demos manage to create such elaborate graphics with so few bytes of code. I just… I don’t… how?! And they get more and more elaborate over time, too, so my level of bafflement just increases.
That’s also a pretty interesting landscape - it looks like a low-res version of something from a (good) movie or video game, yet it could be described in the equivalent of a short sentence…

I love how this demo relies on human hardwired pareidolia to fill in the detail.

There was the Mandelbrot set. Then decades passed, and now this. Hope I am around for the next. Frankly more interesting than another eclipse.
no offense, but someone who actually experienced an eclipse for themselves, would never say this.
