This is a small project in Flash that can generate a massive variety of intricate textures. In my original implementation, I was adjust the gamma value by 0.1 on each button click, but I realized that even a change as small as 0.01 has a significant impact on the appearance of the texture.

I really like this project simply because the mathematics behind it are so simple and yet can produce complex images.
