His other stuff is amazing too. For example, this water scene. You can click inside the water to splash it around! https://oimo.io/works/water3d/ Cloth is very cool too. https://oimo.io/works/cloth/ Jelly: click on the sphere to tear it apart. https://oimo.io/works/jelly/

The Jelly one is super cool. I was hoping it would slowly assimilate back into its original form if you let it sit for a bit.

That would be awesome. And you could control the speed of reassembly. These demos are quite cathartic.

Wow. That makes me anxious. It really makes me feel like the seconds come and go.

It’s interesting, it doesn’t bother me at all.

Reminds me not to spend to much time on computers and be more present. I love it. Like a wake up alarm for life.

Sweet, a Yugo Nakemura for the 21st Century. Anyone who doesn’t remember yugop.com, it was a site of beautifully cool experiments with Flash and Actionscript 1/2, the guy really was an inspiration to so many of us trying to figure out what to do with the web.

This clock is mesmerizing. It will surely make me forget what I was doing before looking at the time.

I especially love the jump animation every 10 seconds and the minutely(?) super jump.

Sorry for the asside, perhaps we could add a rule that single name tools need a short description in the thread title. The top two threads are titled "Clock" and "Astral" and you don't know what they are going to be until I click out to the external site or try to guess from comments.

When I was younger, I was impressed by the technical feat of demos like this.

Nowadays, while still impressive, the technical mystery has faded somewhat. What's even more impressive to me though is the discipline, time and motivation management to deliver something of this caliber. Hats off!

This clock reminded me of a PSX game called: Forbidden Cube (or alternatively Intelligent Cube) https://youtu.be/BZM9kTGFeko

one of the most incredible PS1 games (that i spent a huge amount of time in) now available on PS4/PS5. not sure if upscaled or "remastered" but it is hella fun nonetheless https://store.playstation.com/en-us/product/UP9000-CUSA32015...
