Nice animation! Very pleasing to look at.

You can create a windows screensaver from an animation using...

(... searching google... here's the first one I found:)

... http://www.softdd.com/createv/index.htm

This is a screen saver maker program you can try for free. There are
probably others like it. I once wrote a screen saver maker program
using coupled harmonic oscillators which you could build up in complex
ways by clicking and dragging. Please let me know if I can be of
further assistance.
