Build some lovely things for people
All activity
A digital fidget that reacts to your touch, breathes on its own, and develops moods. Poke it — particles scatter. Hold it — it melts into you. Ignore it — it gets curious. No guides. No meditation. Just feel.

I made a thing that has moods and sometimes ignores you - AMA

Launching SPHERE tomorrow - 5000 particles that react to touch, breathe on their own, and occasionally just... don't care about your cursor. Started as a weird experiment: can something on a screen feel alive? Still not sure I figured it out. Down to talk about: - how it works (Three.js, shaders, particle madness) - why I called it a "living fidget" - the iOS version I'm building Ask me stuff.
