You want to implement an IFS in Pd?

I think that's a bad idea (unless you want it to be very slow, passing 
messages between different objects is not something you want to do 
100000+ times per frame).

Having said that, I did try it, but didn't have much luck: I did 
something like:

[gemhead]
[t a a a]
[GEMglEnd] [repeat 10000] [GEMglBegin]\[glDefine GL_POINTS]
            ...
            [GEMglVertex3f]

but I got GL errors and no image, can't remember the exact message now 
though.


On the other hand, you can do some fun things with texture feedback 
quite efficiently:
