Could anyone explain what's going on? (I.e. how my mouse position influences the shape?)

It's using Y position of the mouse to determine the size of the tiles.

This tiler uses an algorithm that recursively subdivides triangles according to certain rules. Moving the mouse lets you easily see each transformation from the previous. Try clicking anywhere on the page too.
