As for the current code:
Here you are picking a random rotation for each pixel:
a1 := .5 + float64(float64(mr.Intn(size.X))/3)/float64(mr.Intn(size.X))*2
a2 := .8 + float64(float64(mr.Intn(size.X))/2)/float64(mr.Intn(size.Y))*2
This can change for every pixel (in shader the time is a constant for one
frame):
time := float64(time.Now().UTC().Unix())*speed + 0.25
In func toUint8(in float64) uint8 { you need to clamp the value between 0
and 255, otherwise the conversion overflows.
Color adjusting code doesn't match the shader code.
I suspect there are further issues in the iteration code.
PS: often with such fragments you can simplify code and achieve a similar
result with less details, e.g.
