In this video I use source code as means to illustrate how stunning RGB graphics can be achieved on a 256-color screen, so much that you actually may doubt whether it is really only 256 colors.

Note: The animation does not look blurry because of dithering. Dithering does increase blurriness a little, but in a different way and most certainly not this much. The reason to blurriness is that the actual video is all about orbs that do not have a defined edge (they're just clouds of pure light). And then there's motion blur that is added to it. In other words, the _original_ video material is blurry. I created it this way to maximize the number of color mixtures shown.
