I was thinking about my upcoming school project focused on Windows 10 universal apps and I ran into very interesting experiment : https://www.chromeexperiments.com/experiment/stochasticity

I want to work on something very similiar or achieve similar level of animation in metro universal application writen in Csharp. I have never worked with any sort of animation or 2d graphics while writing WUA.

Can somebody direct me into right way to start with this ? What are your recommendation, is this even possible..any particular sample codes ?

Thank you.

For 2D raster graphics take a look at Win2d. Win2d is a Windows Runtime wrapper over Direct2D and enables high performance 2d rendering similar to what your experiment does with the HTML Canvas. The CanvasAnimatedControl is specifically designed for scenarios like what I think you're looking for.

See the introduction and quick start on GitHub to get started and for more samples.
