The Moiré Butterfly
The moiré butterfly is a pattern designed to simulate the wing motion of a butterfly in flight. As the lines of the parallel grid move across the butterfly pattern, an alternating series of images appears to resemble the flight.
Use the alternating "Manual" and "Auto" button below to control whether the grid moves on its own (Auto), or whether you control movement (Manual).
