Gravilux was inspired by Newton`s equations for gravity and does not follow our universe`s laws.
As you touch the screen, gravity draws simulated stars to your fingertips. You can tease and twist the particles into galaxies, explode them like a supernova, or color the stars by their speed.
Move the mouse to the bottom of the screen to change parameters including gravity, antigravity, number of stars, star size, and color. Gravilux was first released as a work of interactive art by Scott Sona Snibbe that was only available in galleries and museums.
Gravilux is a combination of drawing, animation, art, science, and gaming.
Gravilux was first released in 1998 as a work of interactive art that was only available in galleries and museums. Now it is available also as an iPhone and iPad application. Gravilux was created for the iPhone and iPad with the help of openFrameworks.
NOTE: The Gravilux can only be purchased via the Mac App Store (the buy link redirects you to its App Store page). To purchase/download applications via the App Store an Apple account is required.
