Cymatic Ferrofluid
saw this ARTICLE and simple had to have a go at circle packing with changing the rules at the centre like explained in the link <--

From Michael Crichton’s book “State of Fear”:
“”Let’s remember where we live, [...]. We live on the third planet from a medium-size sun. Our planet is five billion years old, and it has been changing constantly all during that time. The Earth is now on its third atmosphere.
The first atmosphere was helium and hydrogen. It dissipated early on, because the planet was so hot. Then, as the planet cooled, volcanic eruptions produced a second atmosphere of steam and carbon dioxide. Later the water vapor condensed, forming the oceans that cover most of the planet. Then, around three billion years ago, some bacteria evolved to consume carbon dioxide and excrete a highly toxic gas, oxygen. Other bacteria released nitrogen. The atmospheric concentration of these gases slowly increased. Organisms that could not adapt died out.
Meanwhile, the planet’s land masses, floating on huge tectonic plates, eventually came together in a configuration that interfered with the circulation of ocean currents. It began to get cold for the first time. The first ice appeared two billion years ago.
And for the last seven hundred thousand years, our planet has been in a geological ice age, characterized by advancing and retreating glacial ice. No one is entirely sure why, but ice now covers the planet every hundred thousand years, with smaller advances every twenty thousand or so. The last advance was twenty thousand years ago, so we’re due for the next one.
And even today, after five billion years, our planet remains amazingly active. We have five hundred volcanoes, and an eruption every two weeks. Earthquakes are continuous: a million and a half a year, a moderate Richter 5 quake every six hours, a big earthquake every ten days. Tsunamis race across the Pacific Ocean every three months.
Our atmosphere is as violent as the land beneath it. At any moment there are one thousand five hundred electrical storms across the planet. Eleven lightning bolts strike the ground each second. A tornado tears across the surface every six hours. And every four days, a giant cyclonic storm, hundreds of miles in diameter, spins over the ocean and wreaks havoc on the land.
The nasty little apes that call themselves human beings can do nothing except run and hide. For these same apes to imagine they can stabilize this atmosphere is arrogant beyond belief. They can’t control the climate.
The reality is, they run from the storms

'kin taxes
Certainty? In this world nothing is certain but death and taxes. Benjamin Franklin
*sigh* Perhaps, if it does not want to cause any unrest or dissent, our government had better start investing in more superior bandwidth servers.
Lo and behold the largest slice of the budget is going on 'social protection' now what is that exactly? It certainly isn't for crime reduction - and no matter what government spin says, its a fact - the police are simply not getting paid enough, street/gun crime is rising. So its not for that kind of social protection. I'm assuming that is covered in the thin cream coloured slice.
So where is it going? what does social protection actually mean? more aid to anti-terrorist activity? Increased phone tapping and internet traffic surveillance? ha! no, its merely looking after pensioners, homeless, asylum seekers & children. see here for a pdf breakdown of how this is spent.
Ah well, so much for conspiracy, move along now, nothing to see here.

Whilst waiting such a long time for our excessively 'surfeited' hmrc.gov to be able to cope with a large slice of the anticipated (160 billion+) income tax contributions it is about to receive , I got to thinking... Where the fcuk do all my 'kin taxes go and what is our 'security' conscious government mostly spending it on?
