About it
A word or picture becomes a tree of splats. Each splat has the exact center and covariance of the pixels beneath it, and each split divides them at the median along their main axis, so the two halves add back up to their parent.
Tap a splat and it splits into its two halves, which slide apart from its center. Tap its ring again, or tap the background, to clear the selection and shading. Tap another splat to go finer there. Hold a piece, or tap one at the finest level, to merge it back. Each split rings its splat and shows its numbers. The dial sets the whole picture from 1 to 16,384 splats. Type a word or open a picture (it stays on this device) in the Splash tab. From a concept by Ryan Kamp. Made by Ryan Kamp. Code: MIT. Procedural splats: CC0.
