Mining for quartz

So, I've recently begun teaching myself to use Apple's Quartz Composer. This little app is included on the Developer Tools CD, and it is absolutely amazing.

In finding some resources to further my knowledge of Quartz I stumbled upon this site.

Each of these animations was done in an hour, give or take, using Quartz Composer, and as far as I am concerned are brilliantly done. While my work with Quartz is just beginning, I cannot promise it will lead to anything, but I'm certainly hoping it will.
