.SH DESCRIPTION
The Intersection Aggregate is a fun visualization defining the relationships 
between objects with Casey Reas, William Ngan, and Robert Hodgin. Commissioned 
for display at the Whitney Museum of American Art.

A surface filled with 100 medium to small sized circles. Each circle has a 
different size and direction, but moves at the same slow rate. Display:

    A. The instantaneous intersections of the circles.
    B. The aggregate intersections of the circles.
.SH OPTIONS
.I interaggregate
accepts the following options:
.TP 8
.B \-\-num\-circles \fIdisc count\fP (Default: \fI100\fP)
Number of slowly moving and growing discs to use.  The more discs, 
the more CPU power.
.TP 8
.B \-\-growth\-delay \fIdelayms\fP (Default: \fI18000\fP)
Delay in ms between drawing cycles.  More delay, slower (but smoother 
and less CPU intensive.)
art.
.TP 8
.B \-\-fps
Display the current frame rate and CPU load.
.TP 8
.B \-\-visual \fIvisual\fP
Specify which visual to use.  Legal values are the name of a visual class,
or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific visual.
.TP 8
.B \-\-window
Draw on a newly-created window.  This is the default.
.TP 8
.B \-\-root
Draw on the root window.
.TP 8
.B \-\-window\-id \fInumber\fP
Draw on the specified window.
.SH ENVIRONMENT
.PP
.TP 8
.B DISPLAY
to get the default host and display number.
.TP 8
.B XENVIRONMENT
to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global
resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
.TP 8
.B XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW
The window ID to use with \fI\-\-root\fP.
.SH BUGS
.PP
.TP 8
Setting the background to anything besides black confuses the intensity 
algorithm and will look terrible.
