When to use it
Art/design-themed hero backgrounds, gallery splash screens, ambient displays referencing early modernist aesthetics.
When not to
Contexts requiring legible text overlays — bars drift into readable areas. Dark-background layouts where the cream field clashes.
Working with an AI agent
Every component ships agent-ready metadata. An example instruction for this one:
Change the palette to earthy tones by updating PAL to {black:'#2b1d0e', red:'#8b3a1a', blue:'#2c4a6e', yellow:'#c9913d'} and increase bar count N from 9 to 14. Theme: dark tokens live in :root, the light variant in :root[data-theme="light"]; ?theme=light or a {type:'forever:theme'} postMessage switches at runtime.
Safe to edit
- bar count (N=9)
- palette colors (PAL object)
- bar size range (long: 14+40%, thin: 4+16%)
- rotation range (-30..+30deg)
- drift duration range (16..32s)
- theme tokens (:root dark defaults + [data-theme=light] overrides)
Keep intact
- IIFE wrapper
- prefers-reduced-motion guard with static fallback
- visibilitychange pause/resume
- aria-label on field div
- theme hook (?theme= bootstrap + forever:theme message listener + theme tokens)
Known limitations
- Bar positions randomize on each page load — composition cannot be pinned
- Bars can overlap in ways that obscure each other; no z-index ordering logic

- The Black Square, BreathingA near-black square barely scales and rotates on a warm white ground; a faint red ghost square offsets behind it. Suprematist stillness in motion.
- Dynamic CompositionSuprematist shapes fly in from edges, hold in a white void, then depart — bars, circles, crosses in black, red, blue, yellow; never repeating.
- The Aviator's FieldSuprematist bars in black, red, blue, and yellow launch diagonally across an off-white field at steady tempo; reduced-motion shows a static arrangement.
- Cross & CircleSuprematist shapes — cross, circle, bar, square — fling in from the nearest edge with cubic ease and a settling wobble, auto-composing on a warm white field.
- Weightless7 Suprematist shapes — squares, circles, bars, crosses in red/blue/yellow/white — orbit and self-spin around an invisible centre on a dark field.
- Red WedgeA bold red CSS triangle slowly sweeps across a cream field past faint black and grey rectangles, evoking Suprematist's Suprematist diagonal.
