Type Rain

Streams of glyphs fall over the interface and light it as they pass: the page is held dim, and where a stream crosses, the real colour and type show through around a bright head glyph. Every stream is seeded by its column, so the rain falls the same way each visit. The pointer parts the streams.

Fernworks · irrigation log

Four zones, one head end.

Every valve the head end opened before sunrise, logged zone by zone against the schedule. Run the rain across the log and the numbers light as it falls.
