This psychedelic storm is more than just a pretty screen saver design. It's a demonstration of the full range of colors that can be displayed by a 24-bit computer system, all 16,777,216 of them. In the interest of full disclosure, YouTube video doesn't have the ability to display every single color included in the original visualization, plus cropping and compressing have imposed further limits. Nevertheless, it's an interesting video, even if you're
not getting the full effect of all 16.8 million colors. If you're still curious after watching the YouTube version, you can also scope out the full uncompressed 4096 x 4096 image at Google Docs.
