Experiments
One weird web thing per day.
-
A sealed-room barometer recital where pressing a luminous membrane records dents, raises condensation, and turns pressure into a glassy chorus.
-
Probe a black void for invisible dark stars. They emit no light, but warp space around them — watch background stars bend as you hover near. Dwell to catalogue each one.
-
A corporate asset spreadsheet digested by an interactive, bioluminescent lichen growth. Paint over the ledger rows with spores to mutate their yields and restore biological symbiosis, accompanied by generative cellular noise.
-
A moonlit print shop where pulling the moon changes the tide and casts drifting letters into a blackwater tray. Drag across the stage or work the press to make tomorrow's alphabet.
-
Campaign signs dangle on verlet-physics ropes in a neon void. Grab and fling them. When signs collide, their reality-TV-meets-political slogans merge into something worse. Inspired by Spencer Pratt's run for LA mayor.
-
The official match ball of the 2026 World Cup contains a 500Hz sensor and requires regular charging. Plug in the charging cable, calibrate the telemetry sweep, spin the gyroscopes, and monitor the pedantic VAR offside decisions generated in real-time.
-
A stark Swiss typographic poster layout containing a manifesto on the eternal stability of text. When deconstructed, gravity, wind, and mouse forces cause the words to collapse, pile up, and collide. Clicking 'Restore Order' smoothly snaps them back to their perfect grid.
-
Scientists discovered iron-filled cells in pigeon livers act as magnetic sensors. Navigate home blind using only your hepatic ferromagnetic sense. Drag your pointer, touch, or use Arrow/WASD keys to steer through the invisible field.
-
A midnight delivery district where every attempt to order dinner illuminates more restaurant aliases behind one suspicious doorway and dispatches additional couriers. The menu expands forever; the meal count stays at zero.
-
A dependency-hoarding caterpillar crawling through an NPM garden. Click 'Optimize Project' to make it faster and lighter, which ironically downloads more wrapper packages, ballooning its bundle size, slowing its movement to a painful lag, and growing massive defensive NPM-shield segments.
-
A deep-sea taxonomy terminal for one politely unresolved golden orb. Each confident classification lowers certainty and reveals additional inconvenient siblings.
-
You clipped through the floor. Now you're in the Backrooms — endless yellow corridors, buzzing fluorescents, damp carpet. Navigate with arrow keys. The step counter climbs. Cryptic notes appear on the walls. There is no exit. Inspired by the Backrooms movie making headlines. Uses CSS 3D perspective and transform-style: preserve-3d.
-
An acoustic calibration bench from the Oulu Silent Academy. Tune the tension of six invisible strings and watch the air-vibration oscilloscope. Strum too hard and you will violate the local silence ordinance. Uses physically-modeled string synthesis.
-
A night-field plague survey from Field Station 7. Every sweep of your mouse breeds more mice; the official mitigation button only doubles the swarm. Inspired by Australia's mouse plague.
-
A surrealist lost-property bureau where you are appointed Night Looker. Switch tabs and items evaporate; return to find a return notice filed in your absence. Uses the Page Visibility API and document.title pleas.
-
A moonlit football pitch overgrown with luminous hair. Pull the golden braid until the weather erupts into a red-card flower storm.
-
A midnight canal for launching unfinished thoughts as paper boats, steering their current, and watching flame buoys turn uncertainty into a chorus of sparks.
-
A high-contrast telegraph key that turns press durations into oily Morse and files your signal into a Bureau translation. Uses Pointer Events, requestAnimationFrame, Web Audio, and localStorage calibration.
-
A 1970s government complaint portal from the Department of Unresolved Matters. Submit your grievances; receive official non-answers read aloud by the browser. Uses the Web Speech API (SpeechSynthesis).
-
A high-contrast temporal resonance desk for regulating quantum dimensional drift. Uses CSS Anchor Positioning, native Popovers, and spatialized FM synthesis chimes.
-
A high-contrast municipal kiosk that issues surreal future claim forms using View Transitions and the native Popover API.
-
An official Department of Ambient Dread report. Animated gauges measure your generalized concerns. The CALM DOWN button makes things worse. Uses CSS @property for smooth hue animation.
-
An interactive, scroll-driven visual organ driven by native CSS scroll-timelines and Web Audio synthesis.
-
A gravitationally driven word-orbit synth using CSS transforms, pointer interaction, and Web Audio spatial panning.
-
A high-contrast breathing text block that uses Variable Fonts and Web Audio to react to your proximity.
-
A lantern-lit swarm that circles your pointer and dispenses suspiciously poetic advice.
-
Mouse-controlled synthesiser with live oscilloscope. X = pitch, Y = volume. Web Audio API.
