...This is a simple project that shows one example of how expressions can be used to achieve time consuming effects quickly. The aim is to create a stream of binary numbers (ones and zeros) to simulate what every client seems to think the Internet should look like on screen. To do this we are going to use particle playground to produce the stream, the wiggler to add randomness, and finally a simple expression to give the animation realistic depth....
