Infinitude

Pulsing Dot Field

A lattice of red dots pulses in radius and alpha via staggered sine waves; bright dots flash yellow at peak. No user input required.

When to use it

Dark-mode hero backgrounds, loading screens, ambient loop displays needing a structured generative feel.

When not to

Light backgrounds (hardcoded dark fill). Contexts where constant pulsing motion competes with foreground content.

Working with an AI agent

Every component ships agent-ready metadata. An example instruction for this one:

Change dot color to cyan (#00eaff) and flash color to white (#ffffff), increase grid spacing from gap=30 to gap=40, slow the pulse by changing t+=dt to t+=dt*0.5. Theme: dark tokens live in :root, the light variant in :root[data-theme="light"]; ?theme=light or a {type:'forever:theme'} postMessage switches at runtime.

Safe to edit

  • grid spacing (gap=30)
  • dot base and peak radius (3+wave*7)
  • base color (#e8112d) and highlight color (#ffd400)
  • pulse speed (t+=dt)
  • phase offset formula (x+y)*0.02
  • theme tokens (:root dark defaults + [data-theme=light] overrides)

Keep intact

  • DPR-aware canvas sizing (fitCanvas)
  • visibilitychange pause/resume
  • prefers-reduced-motion guard (REDUCED)
  • IIFE wrapper
  • theme hook (?theme= bootstrap + forever:theme message listener + theme tokens)

Known limitations

  • Background color hardcoded in both CSS and canvas fill — must change both to retheme
  • No pointer interactivity — dots do not react to cursor

  • Mirror Tunnel26 rings of colored dots recede toward a vanishing point, growing in size and radius as they rush toward the viewer — a looping mirrored tunnel illusion.
  • The Dotted GourdAn orange ribbed gourd rendered on canvas with 110 dark dots scaled by curvature and depth; the whole form sways gently as if in a breeze.
  • The Endless NetA grid of scalloped double-arc loops drawn on deep red canvas, each cell pulsing in brightness on its own sine-wave phase, evoking woven netting.
  • Dissolve115 colored dots orbit an empty center in a slow ellipse, periodically dissolving outward in a breathing scatter pattern with depth-based opacity.
  • Mirrored Light Box12 nested glowing squares dive inward in a perpetual zoom loop while rotating; colored corner dots hue-rotate continuously over a deep dark stage.
  • Cadmium Gourd StripesWavy cadmium-yellow and black bands undulate horizontally while 70 white and red dots drift upward through the field in a looping scroll.
