Static Screensaver - Relive the days of CRT TVs!

Recommended Posts

If you're anything like me, you love screensavers. They add a certain aesthetic charm to any monitor. Which is why I made Static. Static brings back the glory days of CRT televisions, and that screen that showed up when the TV had no video input, accompanied by that memorable KCHHHHH sound that woke up the cat when you turned on the TV to watch Saturday morning cartoons. (Good old Tom&Jerry...)

 

While Static lacks the sound, it does have the black and white dot effect associated with a CRT static no-signal screen.

 

Static can be found at the link below. Simply download or Copy paste, and give it a run, and watch as your screen fills with black and white dots. Press any key but ESC to exit the screensaver.

Or, get via wget:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NoahNMorton/Gangsir_MC_LuaPrograms/master/OpenComputers/Static_Screensaver.lua static.lua

Some screenshots of it in action, although still images somewhat ruin the effect:

Looks pretty good from far away, too:
