[PD] infinite zoomer feedback

Well, the algorithm you were using was rather silly, and it should be pretty
obvious why. What you should probably do is use a fixed number of repeats
(enough for as many spheres as you can see at once, rather than just
increasing exponentially and indefinitely), and add a modulo-based algorithm
to loop things back when they get deranged - deranged being the operative
word, in the case of what you were tying to do before :-p.
Having got as far as thinking about it, I've rewritten it, too. There are
no comments, so let me know if you have any questions. I haven't put in any
controls, and if you want to change the spacing it will take a few
modifications (try this, I'm sure you could use the exercise).
