The pattern is created by calling 102 iframes
inside a single table cell with a width set to
700 pixels via the deprecated `width` attribute
Each iframe is loaded with a random pick
from one of twenty possible pages ordered
from 1 to 20
Each of the twenty pages was statically generated
with a random color background and a random interval
to wait before using a meta tag redirect to move to
the next page in the order
Said another way, each tile is playing the
same sequence of colors at the same cadence as
all the other tiles. The only difference between
them is which of the twenty possible positions they
start at (plus a little drift in load timing)
So, the pattern in pseudo-random but it's the same
each time the page is loaded. It's a bit like a
one-time pad
being used over and over again. (At least, until I
regenerate the site with a new set of random output.)
