I saw it on LibreGraphicsWorld:
http://libregraphicsworld.org/blog/entr ... evitalized

I do not know what will be the algorithms used by the program, but it's crazy to see how patterns are generated. And you can get very nice patterns:

Malwarebytes blocked the site, it's probably a false positive.

Surely is a false positive.

Hi Rod.
Deb packages are on site to download.
There is a program "alien" to convert packages. It's not ideal but it can be a quick solution. I've always found good compatibility between Ubuntu and Fedora packages. Here I upload the converted package to Fedora users can test it (32 and 64bit):
http://www.fileswap.com/dl/ApY1PmqSZx/e ... 6.rpm.html
http://www.fileswap.com/dl/be5UhyzAEO/e ... 4.rpm.html
Anyway, alien usage (deb to rpm):
Code:
alien -r package.deb

The package does not have a launcher. You must open the terminal and run the program with:
Code:
/usr/bin/evolvotron

O directly "evolvotron".

Thanks YAFU. you can tell it was a quick throw together by looking at the right side of the image. What's cool is that's just one of four different configurations of your pattern. If you duplicate it three times and arrange them differently by rotating them one way or the other, you get different variations.

One way it almost looks like circles looking back at you.
