  • I’ve installed this page to show off both my artistic flair as well as my dynamic web development skills. Nothing really useful, but it does exemplify a small subset of my capabilities.
  • “Psychedelic” has three variations. You can click each one to see the next.
  • “Gears” is a JavaScript animation that flips through a sequence of eight images, each with a rotation progression of 2.75°. The server is a bit slow, so please give it time to load. Pressing <esc> will stop the animation.
  • “Ring and Pinion”, like “Gears”, is a JavaScript animation that flips through a sequence of still images. As with “Gears”, pressing <esc> will stop the animation.
  • “Perspective Grid” is also a JavaScript animation that flips through a sequence of still images, each with a rotation progression of 2.5°, beginning with a one point grid (0° and 90°). This time, I’ve added a simple “movie player”, which provides play/pause, step forward, step back and rewind functionality. I also poll the keyboard so you can use the left and right arrow keys to step forward and backwards. Pressing [esc] or [space] will pause the animation. On pause, pressing [space] will restart the animation.
NOTE:
  • If you don’t have javascript enabled, you won’t be able to enjoy the show.
  • There are no popup windows. The “popup” is an HTML DIV element.
  • It is in fact a JQuery-UI dialog.
