You can also play with the machines themselves, if you want, here:

The main idea in both of the machines is that a brush has a configurable
"central color". Dominant color. And, also, each brush has a
configurable "color range". The smaller the color range, the closer all
the colors the brush draws are to the central color. The greater the
color range, the more colors the brush draws. In Aleph Null 1.0, you can
only have one brush at a time. In Aleph Null 2.0, you can have as many
brushes as you want. The drawing algorithms are a bit more accomplished
in Aleph Null 2.0; the brushes have more interesting transparency/alpha
and they draw more smoothly. Also, Aleph Null 2.0 has many more
selectable nibs for a brush, and some of those nibs are dbCinema-ish in
that they use images as paint, not simply color/gradient. Also, Aleph
Null 2.0 works well on mobile.
Here is a doc I wrote about Aleph Null 2.0 that was recently rejected by
the NFB. It outlines further features I'd like to add to Aleph Null.
Possibly 3.0. If I can: http://vispo.com/alephTouch/docs/AlephNull2NFB.pdf
