- TUMBLE is Tumble-ST v.2.09, Another Adventure in Kinetic Art by Dan Rhea
- (dated 1990). It's the best program of its kind that I have seen.
- Tumble is simply a program that takes two points on the screen and moves
- them each in one of eight directions (N, NW, W...), and then draws a
- line between the two points. What makes it entertaining is that this
- can leave interesting patterns on the screen. By altering the distance
- each point moves each time you can create moire patterns. It it's
- current form, any time a point reaches the edge of the screen or goes a
- randomly predefined distance new directions are picked, maybe a new
- color for the line and the number of spaces the point moves in it's
- assigned direction. All of Tumble's functions are controllable using
- the mouse in combination with a _wide_ variety of alert boxes. There
- are SO many choices! Detailed docs included (interesting in and of
- themselves). Because of the nature of this program with its flashing
- lights and colors the author recommends (yes, insists) that any persons
- suffering from Eplipsy should NOT view this program. It might trigger a
- seisure in those persons sensitive to flashing light. Color only.
- BEAUTIFUL! TOS 1.0-1.62 and Geneva compatible (at least). Careware.
