I thought this was quite cool. I haven't worked with CoreAnimation yet and it looks real easy.
To play around with it I added a window to change core/glow colors, change the background, and add/remove spheres.
I think I had to write more glue code for all the outlets than I did to actually do the CA stuff.
Changing sphere colors or adding a lot of them takes ~15 seconds each time on my PowerMac G5. Changing the gradient on the other hand is realtime.

PS. I love it when you do things like this. Really encourages people to try it out for themselves.
