>With things like the pi zero, the cost of a machine that can endlessly run full video is vastly eclipsed by the screen to present it on. So simple palette animations are now pointless. it's not pointless -- constraint often produces beauty in unexpected ways. Piet Mondrian's art wouldn't have been improved by access to millions of colors and microscopic detail; the rigorous constraints are what produced his entire style. plus as a developer the idea of using the least amount of machine to accomplish something is incredibly appealing to me; it's like a more extreme version of code golf.
