[uldlnodz] Flying through checkerboards

Fly around a virtual universe composed of many equally spaced parallel planes colored in a checkerboard patten.  The camera always looks in the same direction, rendering the checkerboards with perspective.

The checkerboards provide a visual cue of motion and velocity in the X and Y directions.  The rate at which one approaches and flies through planes provides a visual cue of motion and velocity in the Z direction.

Inspired by, what would it be like to be a particle floating through a Lorenz system?
