This screen saver simulates the convection of free-flowing particles enclosed in a cube that is being heated from the bottom. Warmer particles expand and turn red. They tend to get displaced by the more concentrated cold blue particles pushing their way down—hence the convection.

I wrote this thing over a weekend when I was sick at home. It is my first screen saver, my first experience with Cocoa, the first time I have worked directly with OpenGL, and the first time I have used XCode.
