Creates complex moving patterns of lines and curves in response to touching the screen.

Kaleidoscope is based on an anonymously written program of the same name for the DEC PDP-8 computer. It was somewhat remarkable because the original program was only about 40 bytes long yet generated complex moving patterns consisting of various conic sections (circles, ellipses, parabolas and hyperbolas).
