This music is amazing! Is it from one playlist on soundcloud?
The default is one playlist, yes. But if you head to the "music" tab, you can choose from a bunch more!

#32Really excited to share a personal project I've been working on here. If you check it out, I'd love to know what you think. Enjoy a peek into the lives of others, from locations around the world. Hyperlax is meant to be a bit of an escape, a bit voyueristic, a bit relaxing. I think it's mesmerising. Maybe you will too!
This is a super cool project! Totally the sort of thing I would leave open in a window while I worked.

#33Nice project! Was actually hoping for something a little different; I've thought about having 4k streams with (local) ambient audio from around the world for use as virtual "windows". Just hang a 4k tv on a wall, and play a location/timezone that suits your mood... (Perhaps with a 24h buffer, so that one could match relative sun height/light to local time if one wants to...). Would be interesting to see an accompanyi…
You and I are on the same page, I love your idea too. This is my very first project, I'm entirely new to coding, but hopefully eventually I can extend Hyperlax to what you're talking about. Appreciate you checking it out!
Neat project!
Last christmas in SF I wanted to create a "winter vibe" as we were celebrating with the family, and I was looking for videos showing cozy snowfall and winter landscapes. It was surprisingly hard to find something really good. I think it'd be cool if you could select what kind of "window" you want and had a few presets like "Tropical", "Winter landscape", etc.
I personally found the mix of soothing slow music and hyper lapse videos to not be relaxing, I think I'd prefer if the videos were running at normal speed or maybe even in slow motion depending on the video.

#34I can't be the only one who pronounced this in my head as "hyper laxative".

Awesome job! Very impressive for a first project

#36a volme control would be nice
Interesting. You still use this feature? I always thought YouTube and the like still included it on their sites as a throwback to an earlier time, or something. I always use the software on the playback device itself to control the speakers.
Volume controls are important! Some examples: you are on a VoIP call but want background music. You have to listen out for some notification and the front music can't be too loud. You work with other audio files e.g video editing but don't need to be listening actively. Any media-multi-tasking situation, really.

#37What's supposed to happen? All I see is a big photo of a kid, and a music player that isn't making any sound.

#38All the grainy videos with this type of music is reminiscent of a Boards of Canada video. It's cool.
edit: to add, just watching the location tab is amazing, really gives an exciting sense of the world buzzing with activity. Plus I just saw where I live and cycle most days!

Very impressive for a first project. I've been writing code for 20 years and haven't ever made anything this cool :D You're inspiring me!

Hhmm. Do you see a big button that says "Let's Go!"? If not, you may have flash blocked/disabled. LMK what browser you're using. Really sorry about that. Promise it's worth it!
