I'm looking for a good pschadelic animated kaliedoscope prog.
I was got turned onto this when I saw a program called
Polyscope running on a 8mhz Amiga from 1986. It nearly
blew my socks off. I just _know_ if there is somthing _that_
good from 1986 that there are programs for the PC today
that would just be phenomenal with 16 million colors
and radical advanced animations.

How about electropaint? If you installed SGI demos,
it's in /usr/demos/bin/ep

Hi YourName!,...a long time ago, when I was working on a program that
read in WF .rla files, modified them, displayed it on screen, then
saved, then exited. I accidently failed to initialize the SGI
framebuffer to RGBmode, and what I got was this incredible
psychodelic image,...I displayed and recorded to videotape a whole
sequence and it was a pretty cool effect,...if you can program in
GL, then it's pretty easy to do....

...though this doesn't really do the kaliedoscope effect you're
also wanting...

Is there a Windows version?

OK, my hunt for the program paid off. For Webbers, check
out www.hyperreal.com. They've got a ton of psychadelic
graphics packages that absolutely blew me away.

BTW I've got a real name now. Netscape
sets your default name to 'Your Real Name.' I just
got the newest version and forgot to add my name to the
prefrences menu.
