The double gemhead trick is based on "forced rendering". If you look at the gemhead help file, you will see, that banging a gemhead will make it render just one frame. In the double-gemhead configuration, the upper gemhead basically ist just a metro driving the rendering of the lower gemhead with bangs. (But you cannot use a normal metro here, as the bangs have to be timed exactly in sync with the gemwin's frame rate.) The lower gemhead as default is switched off (with a loadbang -> 0), so that it is not rendering, unless it receives a bang. The with some simple [t b a] voodoo you can make many forced renderings of the same geo but with different transformations applied to each. See attached example patch for this in action.
