Do they still make screensavers that collect these kinds of things these days? When I was a kid, I used to love just staring blankly at computer screensavers.

  ElectricSheep (https://electricsheep.org/ https://electricsheep.org/) is still around. Based on fractal flames (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractal_flame https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractal_flame). Freaks out corporate firewalls though, because it looks a lot like a file sharing network.

      Fun fact, the frontier LLMs can (mostly) oneshot a realtime implementation of it (I got passable versions in both webgl and in c++ for a screensaver). They struggle with the "evolution"/variation part, though, so you mostly get some fixed number of variants.
