> A real-time, node-based video effects compositor for the web built with HTML5, Javascript and WebGL

I for one am really impressed. While I'm not up to date with node.js, WebGL (or even HTML5 tbh), the boundaries that people keep pushing with web technologies is pretty wild.

EDIT: Reading more, I'm not sure if I am proud or embarrassed about my narrow focus over the last few years. I'm proud that I'm making a good living due to it, but disappointed that I haven't been able play with these things. Reading about WebGL [1], I feel like there is a new world to explore (for web programming).

Finally a demo that doesn't make me think "Wow, the web has really caught up to the 1995 desktop!"

Maybe if you're already an after-effects wiz this doesn't seem as magical, but it certainly felt like magic to me.
