Small interfaces with moving parts, built for Ship Notes. New components are added as their videos come out.
Want one built for your product? DM me on X.
A word left empty inside a field of tiny moving marks. Drag through them and they bend away from your cursor, then settle back. Type your own word to change the opening.
Try it live. Canvas 2D, no runtime dependencies. Copy the source and font files together; usage is in the Glyph Void notes.
A face for your voice assistant. While your AI is quiet it's a stream of 180,000 particles. When it starts a reply, the stream flows into a face that talks, turns and looks at you, then dissolves when the reply ends. Hook it to your own TTS: beginResponse(), setLevel(), endResponse().
Try it live, sound on. API in the Face Flow notes. Three.js in the folder, no build step, about 8 MB of particle data.
Six states an AI goes through, played by one folded metal object: idle, listening, thinking, searching, calling a tool, answering. 18.75 seconds on a 128 BPM grid, and the music is generated by code too. Pick a state yourself or play the whole reel.
Play it live, sound on. API and how the score is made in the notes. One page, Three.js, no build step. fold.setState('thinking') drives it from your app.
A made-up expedition to the bottom of the Mariana Trench. Red goes first, even the buttons lose it. Below 1,000 m your cursor is the only light: find the red jellyfish, tap it and see what answers its alarm. A beaked whale lit by plankton, an anglerfish, the last fish at 8,336 m, a lander on the floor at 10,935 m.
Dive in live, sound on. How it works in the expedition notes. No libraries, no images: every animal is lines on one canvas, every sound synthesized in the browser.
Scroll to the bottom of the ocean, 10,935 m down. The water takes the colors the way real water does, a red can turns black by 20 m, and below 1,000 m your cursor is the only light. Tap the water and the jellyfish flash back. Everest is drawn to scale at the bottom.
Dive in live, sound on. How it works in the Hadal notes. One index.html, Three.js in the folder, every sound synthesized in the browser.
A face for your voice assistant. The orb talks: it swells with the voice, and every word flies out of it as particles and lands as a live caption. Listening, thinking, searching, speaking and done. One line makes it speak with the browser's own voice, or plug in your TTS audio and it follows the real sound.
Try it live. Tap a line and it speaks. Full usage in the Speaking Orb instructions. One JavaScript file, no libraries, no keys, nothing leaves the page.
Project Stack, but the three cards are jelly. Pull a corner and it stretches, flick it and it whips, tap the card behind and it hops out and splats. Each card is 81 points on springs, and the text bends with the surface.
Try it live. Full usage in the Jelly Stack instructions. One JavaScript file, no libraries, WebGL with a plain CSS fallback.
A voice orb for an AI app: 12,000 particles on WebGL that react to live sound from a mic or anything playing on the page. Bass moves the whole sphere, and the highs throw sparks off the edge. Four states: idle, listening, thinking and speaking.
Try it live. Tap Play beat, or Talk to it for the mic. Full usage in the Voice Orb instructions. One JavaScript file, no libraries, and the audio never leaves your browser.
Three portfolio cards in a stack. Pick a tab and the next card comes forward. Give a project an accent color and its card follows it.
Try it live. Full usage in the Project Stack instructions. One JavaScript file, no libraries.
A status light for an AI app: listening, thinking, searching and done, drawn with 12,000 particles on WebGL. Your app sets the state; the orb rebuilds into the new shape.
Try it live. Full usage in the Signal Orb instructions. One JavaScript file, no libraries. It uses fewer particles on phones and cuts the count further if frames run slow.
A desk lamp that switches the page between light and dark themes. Pull the brass cord, tap it, or use the keyboard.
Try it live, works on a phone too.
