History
The main algorithm used in Percolator was developed in 2004, as a small piece of a larger project. This algorithm places circles in the empty areas of images, from the largest possible circle down to the smallest. The software computes a fast solution to a problem area known as circle packing.

Extra Thanks
We want to point out some special talent that helped with our new landing page at www.percolatorapp.com:
- The retro model photography was shot for us and/or licensed by Alex Galushkoff of RetroAtelier.
- The music for the Percolator video was composed by Peter Thomas Gromer of Polarlight Sound.
Percolator is an excellent and fun diversion from the large number of vintage and toy camera apps in the App Store. It’s a unique, well-done modernist app with a fun retro wink.

— Giles Turnbull, Cult of MacI’m not kidding when I tell you that once you start playing around in Percolator, you’ll never look at pictures in the same way again.
