Further thoughts

Print layers that mimic the layers of traces left by moving objects

The easiest is to add half-transparent background every frame that the object moves, which will make a gradation effect on its previous trace.

The object can be:

• a dumb agent
• cursor trace
• math function with a variable (eg. Lissajous, GOL)
• 3D with physical simulation is also interesting
