Particle system
Chladni Sand
Sand on an invisible vibrating plate: resonant plate modes throw grains onto the nodal lines, drawing Chladni figures that form and re-form; the cursor bows, touches or taps the plate. Use for science, sound and abstract scenes.

Quantum Orbitals
A hydrogen electron cloud as Bohmian trajectories: a superposition of two orbitals breathing at the Bohr frequency, coloured by quantum phase; the cursor is a photon, a magnet or a detector. Use for science and tech scenes.
Faraday Powder
Glowing powder on an invisible vibrating plate: acoustic streaming gathers it into swirling heaps at the antinodes, hotter where the plate moves most; the cursor bows, touches or taps the plate. Use for abstract, sound and fire-like scenes.
Shape Flow
A wind tunnel of particle streams flowing round an invisible mesh shape: divergence-free flow, wake eddies, streaklines coloured by pressure; the cursor is a second obstacle, a jet or a vortex. Use for tech, aero and product scenes.
Sea Sparkle
Bioluminescent plankton that flash when the water shears: swell orbits, excitable cells that tire and recover, moon glitter; the cursor is a hand, falling pebbles or a hunting fish. Use for night sea and fantasy scenes.
Sunbeam Dust
Dust drifting in window light: Langevin motion in Kolmogorov turbulence, mullion shadows, forward scattering, glints and bokeh; the cursor is a hand, a torch or a charged rod. Use for interiors and cinematic scenes.
Fireworks
An aerial fireworks show: 20 real shell types, shaped shells, formations and text written in the sky, with drag-limited stars, cooling sparks and lit smoke; fires on its own or where you click. Use for celebrations, New Year and night-sky scenes.
Works well with
Ferrofluid
A ferrofluid cursor: a glossy blob of magnetic liquid that grows spikes in the direction you move the mouse. For science, tech and dark luxury.
CursorMagic Sparkles
A magic sparkle cursor: glittering sparks shed from the mouse pointer, falling and fading behind it. For magic, festive and kids sites.
CursorTesla Discharge
A Tesla cursor: a bright spark at the mouse with a thin charged line behind it, pulses of energy running along it. For tech, science and electric brands.
CursorAura Glow
An aura glow cursor: a soft iridescent halo with electric tendrils that follows the mouse. For wellness, magic and dreamy scenes.
CursorAurora Ribbon Trail
An aurora cursor: a ribbon of northern lights trails the mouse, flowing green, cyan and magenta. For night, nature, winter and dreamy scenes.
