In a nutshell

1.

  • Create equally spaced squares along the vertical line x = stripe.middle.x of each stripe.

    • Use the probabilistic function squareColor = f() to determine the color of the square.
    • If the square is inside a black stripe, draw it.
    • If the square is outside a black stripe,
    • Use the probability drawSquare = f(y) that is lower the further away from canvas.middle.y, to determine if the square is drawn or not.
    • Draw it using an opacity value alpha = f(y) that is lower the further away from canvas.middle.y.
