Infinitude
Mirror Tunnel
26 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.

When to use it
Dark-mode hero backgrounds, loading screens, or ambient displays needing strong depth and motion.
When not to
Light-background UIs (background hardcoded near-black). Contexts where text must be read over the animation.
Working with an AI agent
Every component ships agent-ready metadata. An example instruction for this one:
Change the color palette to cool blues/purples by replacing the cols array with ['#00d4ff','#7b2fff','#0090ff','#c8b8ff','#00ffcc'], and increase ring count by setting NR=36. 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
- ring count (NR=26)
- tunnel speed (speed=0.0016)
- color palette (cols array)
- max tunnel radius (maxR multiplier 0.62)
- dot size range (1.5 + ez*9)
- theme tokens (:root dark defaults + [data-theme=light] overrides)
Keep intact
- IIFE wrapper
- prefers-reduced-motion guard (REDUCED)
- visibilitychange pause/resume
- DPR-aware fitCanvas()
- theme hook (?theme= bootstrap + forever:theme message listener + theme tokens)
Known limitations
- Background color hardcoded in both CSS (#060406) and canvas fillRect — must edit both
- No pointer interactivity — purely passive

- 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.
