Snippets V: 2D Danzer tiles

A barebone implementation of Danzer’s aperiodic tiles in 2D. The spacebar toggles between the 3 different triangles. ‘+’ and ‘-’ change the recursion level.

Tip of the hat, again, to Paul Bourke.

About

When rain hits the windscreen, I see tracks alpha particles trace in cells. When I pull the plug in the bath tub, I stay to watch the little whirlpool. When I sit at the kitchen table, I play with the glasses to see the caustics. At a candle light dinner, I stare into the flame. Sometimes at night, I find myself behind the computer. When I finally blink, a mess of code is drawing random structures on the screen. I spend the rest of the night staring.
