# Proximity Structures

A procedurally generated and interactive animation created with
[PixiJS](http://www.pixijs.com/).

Play with it here: [http://proximity.hallada.net](http://proximity.hallada.net)

![GIF of the animation in action](/img/proximity-structures.gif)

A number of points are placed randomly on a canvas. They move in random
directions with their own movement behavior. Each is assigned a random color. If
other points travel close enough, a connection is drawn between them and each
point's color becomes an average of all of its connected points' colors.

### Interaction

Your mouse on the canvas will repel points away, but clicking and holding will
attract points towards your mouse until you let go, which will explode the
points outwards in all directions.

Scrolling your mouse will speed up or slow down time.
