Try to catch the loop! Glenn Marshall made this beauty completely with processing. The forms and motions… Somehow I find it hard to grasp that whole thing and how the loop fits together. I think it is a very meditative one. Thank you for this work! I also recommend to watch the other works from Glenn Marshall.
A related Processing-work is the Weird Fishes video from Robert Hodgin.
Update: I just found out, that Glen used a self.developed system for his video, he calls “The Zeno”. Get more details about it here.
some call it beautiful some call it kitsch.

The work is not finished, Glen says about Zio it in his blog: “I think I’m about 66% of the way there now.” […]
