I saw the latest video from 2swap when it came out and desperately wanted an interactive version of what he shows in his video. The rendering maps the X and Y axes to the angles of each pendulum. The brightness of each pixel corresponds to the divergence of a pendulum at that location from its neighbors. The color is semi-arbitrary.
Mine looks a bit different from the rendering that he settles on in his video, but you can see the version I render as he scans through parameter space.
You can share different views with the share button. Here's a cool one.
Do you mind if I move this to ~science (where the 2swap video was posted)? I think this deserves a wider audience than ~comp! Awesome job, BTW. I thought the original 2swap video was awesome, and...
Awesome job, BTW. I thought the original 2swap video was awesome, and incredibly eye-opening... but you taking the video's idea and making a web-based interactive visualizer for people to play around with (especially one where you can click anywhere on the map to see that pendulum swinging, along with hearing the sound it generates, just like in the video) is even cooler! :)
p.s. You should get in contact with 2swap and let them know about this... they would probably enjoy learning that their video inspired you to make this. And they might even share the site with their audience so they can play around with it too.
I went poking around in the 2swap video description and found he'd already linked an interactive version that exists here. I'll compare against this one to see how mine differs and if anything...

Sure, move it over.
Done. :)

IMO, yours is WAY better than that one!!!
