I'm trying to make a similar one myself since the original code seems inaccessible and the original creator is inactive. However, I don't fully understand how the algorithm actually works. I know it samples 512 points per frame, and the first frame renders the entire screen while other frames seem to only render differences. The algorithm also seem to mainly fill the gaps between edges so it preserves edges pretty nicely.

Looks like the points to draw were generated using an external program and imported into the project, which just decodes (from the “data” variable) and draws them. Unfortunately, the link to that program (it's in the description) no longer works.

It's possible one of the remixers who is still active could have a copy of the code.
