Ink in Water (16:9) Live Wallpaper
Viscous black and golden ink billows diffusing into crystal clear water with delicate laminar vortex filaments. Pre-calculated for Standard Widescreen (16:9) displays using real-time Incompressible Navier-Stokes Vorticity Confinement.

Algorithmic & Mathematical Specification
Solves the incompressible 2D Navier-Stokes equations on a staggered MAC grid with vorticity confinement to preserve delicate swirl vortices. Color diffusion follows Fick’s second law with buoyancy forces.
Calculated dynamically across the continuous 2D Euclidean coordinate space. Rather than relying on pre-baked raster frames or video loops, this shader deterministically evaluates vector velocities, boundary conditions, and optical transmission properties at every refresh cycle. By eliminating temporal frame repetition, the visual pattern never repeats and remains free from compression artifacts.
