Screensavers

Starfield — Flying Through Stars, Full Screen

Stars streaming past from a vanishing point in the centre of the screen — the screensaver that shipped with Windows and defined what a screensaver looked like for a decade. Adjustable speed, density and warp.

What people use the starfield for

Ambient motion on a spare display

Calm, dark and non-distracting. Good as background motion that will not pull your eye the way a video would.

Nostalgia and set dressing

Instantly reads as nineties computing. Useful for themed events, retro streams and film-set-style backgrounds.

Dark-friendly screensaver

Mostly black with small bright points, so it is easy on the eyes in a dark room and gentle on OLED power draw.
