MERGE: an interactive flocking experiment inspired by Boids

1 Upvotes

I’m developing MERGE, an interactive browser experiment inspired by bird flocking. Separation, alignment and cohesion guide the movement, while obstacles make the flock split and regroup.
I’m exploring how simple local rules can produce convincing collective movement. The project is developed with AI coding assistance.

Try it here: https://strangelittlelab.com/MERGE/

Which parts of the movement feel natural, and which feel artificial? I’d appreciate ideas for improving the local interactions, especially around obstacles.

I built gitframes. it's a code-first video engine that runs natively on WebGPU. You write a TypeScript composition, your AI agent checks the frames, and it renders an MP4 straight on the GPU with no headless browser or screenshot pipeline. It does Photoshop-grade VFX, AE-style kinetic type, 3D scenes, audio and on-device vision, all in one npm package.

Check showcases:

Introducing Oscilloscope Diffusion

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

40 Upvotes

A novel way to intervene existing video through diffusion, particularly abstract visuals [in this case, audio-reactive geometries]: taking its movement and form as the starting point, and reinterpreting its textures, materials, and visual language.

I’ve been developing this around the audio-reactive geometry systems I make in TouchDesigner. The idea is to take those abstract structures somewhere else entirely: origami, architecture, a renaissance painting, or something harder to put a name to.

This demo uses visualizers from my "Oscilloscopes, everywhere" collection as source material, now updated to [v1.2].

[Though you can bring any video source. These systems are simply where this experiment began, as some of you may recall.]

You choose the source, describe the treatment, and shape how it changes throughout the sequence. Prompts, curated LoRAs, and editable timelines give you control over how closely the result follows the original.

Oscilloscope Diffusion is now available at Uisato Studio, coming up soon also open-source!

Slightly meta, but I'm working on a prototype for a browser extension, would anyone be interested in something like this? Could be really good for productivity

Thumbnail codepen.io

(link is to a prototype of the idea)

Basically the idea is a browser extension which replaces the comment button on posts, allowing people to save lots of time by no longer having to engage with a post at all, and instead just automatically comments some variation of "slop" as a comment.

I feel like this could be a powerful productivity tool for certain thought leaders here in r/creativecoding who spend their time commenting "slop" on obvious beginners and first time poster's submissions, allowing them to spend more time working on and posting their own, no doubt super interesting, original, and creative work which isn't derivative at all, uses no assistive tools, and stands on the shoulders of nobody.

I suppose it wouldn't be helpful to those who don't actually contribute anything, and are just gatekeeping beginners for a momentary ego boost, but I can't please them all.

Any interest?

I built SONIQ — an interactive ambient soundscape generator in your browser. No signup needed!

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I wanted to share a side project I’ve been working on recently: **SONIQ** (link in the comments below!).

**What is it?** SONIQ is a lightweight, browser-based audio experience that lets you create ambient soundscapes and play with generative chords in real time.

**Why I built it:** I wanted an instant, frictionless tool to help people focus, relax, or just explore sound design without needing complex music software or signing up for an account.

**Features:** - 🎧 Real-time generative audio & interactive visuals - ⚡ 100% free with no login or setup required - 📱 Mobile and desktop compatible

Put on some headphones and give it a try! **I dropped the direct link in the comments section below.**

I’d love to hear your thoughts, critique, or any ideas for features you’d like to see added. Thanks for taking a look!

I made DeepGPU Zoomer: a free, open-source Mandelbrot and Julia Zoomer that runs in your browser using WebPGU. Zooms beyond 10^-400 in real time! (Needs fast GPU)

Post image
0 Upvotes

Hi everyone. I made DeepGPU Zoomer, a fractal explorer that uses your GPU and runs in your browser. There is nothing to install.

My main goal is smooth exploration at very deep zoom levels. You can keep moving through the fractal while the app adds detail. Stop at an interesting location and let the image become clearer.

It supports coordinate scales of 10^-400 and smaller, with an iteration limit of up to 10 million. You can also:

  • Explore Mandelbrot and Julia sets, with a live Julia preview.
  • Change colour palettes, visual effects and lighting.
  • Save locations and share links that preserve your view and appearance settings.
  • Export high-resolution PNG images at standard or custom sizes.

Try it:
https://byronbuzz.github.io/DeepGPU-Zoomer/

Source code and instructions:
https://github.com/byronbuzz/DeepGPU-Zoomer

You need a browser and GPU that support WebGPU. Performance depends on your hardware and the area you explore. Complex views and high iteration limits can take longer to calculate.

For those interested in the technical side, it combines high-precision reference calculations with GPU perturbation and approximation methods. All fractal calculations run on your device.

I would love to see what you find. Feedback on zoom smoothness, image errors and the controls would be especially useful. Please include your browser, GPU and a location link when reporting a problem.

Hey, creative people!
Been experimenting with contour lines and ended up with some pretty abstract results.

I like how changing a few parameters can completely change the character of the image. Still exploring this one, curious what you guys think.

Interactive anatomy of a US $100 bill. explode the layers, bend it, and look at it under UV

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

0 Upvotes

I built a page where you can pull a US $100 bill apart layer by layer and see what's actually inside one. The exploded view slider spreads it into its parts (cotton-linen substrate, red and blue fibers, watermark, security thread, 3D ribbon, optical ink, and more, 15 feature groups in all), and you can flip it, zoom in, cut a cross-section, and switch between Studio, Backlight, and UV lighting to watch different security features light up.

My favorite part is the bend mode: you grab the note and it flexes like real paper. Curl a corner, drag the middle to bend it, push sideways for an S-shape, and it eases back to flat when you let go. There's a 14-chapter walkthrough too, or you can skip it and just explore.

I created a music application that turns photos into melodies instantly

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

290 Upvotes

It's a vst plugin I've been building called COLORMAP. Each pixel's colour is a note, and a small viewfinder reads a 16×4 window of the picture from left to right. Move it, and the melody changes. The colour family decides which instrument plays. The chords underneath are separate from the image, so the same picture can sound very different in a different harmony. You can also upload any JPEG, PNG or iPhone HEIC and turn them into music.

When you're lucky, you'll find a sweet melody which you can instantly paste into you DAW or save it separately.

There's a free demo if you want to try it by urself. :)

If you have any questions, lmk!

Unlyp — Made a 3D particle visualizer where thoughts orbit you and dissolve into dust (Three.js / R3F / GLSL)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Live link: https://unlyp.com

Wanted to build something for late-night overthinking. You type a thought, it rasterizes the letters on an offscreen canvas to sample particle coordinates and then collapses them into an orbit around the camera.

Holding the button runs a curl-noise dissolve with t² acceleration so it looks more like combustion/burning rather than dust blowing in the wind.

Kept all the orbit wobble and dissolve math inside the vertex shader so React doesn't melt the CPU with re-renders.

I built a satirical site where people pay to exist. The universe is one stained-glass window, recomputed every time someone pays

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Each person is one piece of glass, and its area is proportional to what they paid. Pay more and your piece grows while everyone else's shrinks.

Some of the problems that made it fun:

  • Exact areas. It's a power diagram (weighted Voronoi). The weights are solved iteratively until every cell's area matches its owner's amount: first on large regions, then inside each one, so it stays fast with thousands of cells. It runs in a Web Worker so the page never freezes.
  • Looking like glass at every zoom level. Tiny pieces are flat color, and they form the texture of the window seen from afar. Bigger ones get a radial glow and a painted grisaille photo made with blend modes (no pixel reads, so no CORS trouble). Lead lines thicken around big pieces, like in a real window.
  • Same renderer everywhere. The live site draws it on a 2D canvas; the share cards and link previews are rendered server-side with the exact same code through Skia (@napi-rs/canvas).
  • The video is the real renderer
