Nothing... except for using phase in the bumps normal instead of the
color_map. It's just that phase doesn't work some patterns at all; and for a
few others, not in normals. So you can still animate the colors, just not
the surface normal. Unless you use a different pattern, of course.
The background might be appearing to change a little due to pixel jitter,
perhaps.
See the documentation index, look for phase. Section 6.7.12.2 Frequency and
Phase tells about it.
