a'ight. bwhahahaha! the gig is up. the lorenz attractor code is from one of jared's flash examples on levitated.net. after porting the code over to MatLab, i wanted to composite it into a natural environment, so i drove around town and found this funky cool lime green area in the back of some new condos they've built (and continue to build - you can hear the workmen nextdoor) downtown. perfect! ROTF. i kill myself. hehe.
