About this executable study
Agam Again is reconstructed from its Applesoft BASIC listing and the original two-shape S#016 table. Each cycle clears the high-resolution screen, grows shape 2 from a random position in a random visible Apple II color, then draws shape 1 ninety-four times in XOR mode along the bottom edge.
The long second phase is intentionally gradual. Each repeated XOR drawing alters the accumulated image, producing the shifting vertical bands and optical interference visible in the original Apple IIe recording. The work is silent because the program contains no speaker routine.
