- alexbecker 11y agoWhy is the page trying to load a bunch of resources from my localhost? Looking at the console, I'm seeing (obviously failed) requests like: > http://127.0.0.1/Silk%20Static/Silkura%20-May%2002%20-loop.m4a http://127.0.0.1/Silk%20Static/Silkura%20-May%2002%20-loop.m...
- xavel 11y agoThe link in question is actually "http://yurivish.com/Silk%20Static/Silkura%20-May%2002%20-loop.m4a" http://yurivish.com/Silk%20Static/Silkura%20-May%2002%20-loo... - yurivish.com seems to be a loop to localhost (maybe broken DNS or something, I don't know). Apparently it's supposed to have some music playing in the background, as is also indicated in the message when you click the question icon in the top right corner.
- alexbecker 11y agoHmm... is there an archive for DNS entries, like the Internet Archive acts as for actual content? Edit: Apparently there is dnshistory.org. Looks like the registration expired for that domain in 2013, so I don't know why it's resolving to anything. But the A record used to point to 74.208.41.229, which seems to still be listening on port 80 but is just 404ing.
- thirdreplicator 11y agoWhatever I draw always ends up lookiing like a uterus.
- niix 11y agoWeird, I was thinking the same thing and came here to comment about it. Glad I'm not alone.

- LilValleyBigEgo 11y agoReally? That's the best title you could come up with?
- sowhatquestion 11y agoThe aesthetics of these "interactive art" apps always leave much to be desired. Any image I make with this one looks like e-cigarette packaging.

- mynegation 11y agoI looked at the code of either this thing or something similar in the past (don't remember). Basically there is a "swarm of particles" that follows your mouse when you draw, and they orbit around it with some noise added, as if it was gravitation simulation. The path of colour trails each particle and it may or may not change over time. So if you stay in one place for long, you get more colour and if you do a quick stroke, particles follow quickly and trail becomes thin. You can also add mirror or star symmetry.

- Phithagoras 11y agoThis is very cool looking. Can anyone explain how these images are created? Or know if the source code to something similar is available on Github?
- mrspeaker 11y agoI'm guessing it's drawing based on linked spring physics (and reflected) because I did something similar in 2009: http://www.mrspeaker.net/dev/canvas/springs.html http://www.mrspeaker.net/dev/canvas/springs.html (view-source for code ;)
- pbowyer 11y ago> Can anyone explain how these images are created? It's using JavaScript (D3) and Canvas. There's an interesting mix of JavaScript libraries included in addition to D3: jQuery, Underscore, Knockout...
- ygra 11y agoMost of is is handwritten. D3 for example is only used for the colour picker.
- jschulenklopper 11y agoNot sure why this re-surfaced, but it might be good to read the original announcement from January 2011 on https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2089615 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2089615.

- emehrkay 11y agoWhen things like this webpage is made into an app, does the app utilize the same technology or is it reimplemented in the native language? In this case the canvas tag v. the iOS app
- ajmurmann 11y agoTo me the most interesting part about this is how looking at the comments here it's apparently a great Rorschach test. "Whatever I draw always ends up lookiing like a uterus.", "everything I try ends up looking like some kind of bug", "Any image I make with this one looks like e-cigarette packaging", etc.

- fowkswe 11y agoAm I off in saying that this is not new? I swear there was something exactly like this back in the good ole Flash days, possibly even named the same thing. Anyone else recall it?
- ChrisGranger 11y agoYou're right. I've had this saved in my Delicious bookmarks for years. I think it was mentioned in a popular subreddit recently, so here it is again.

- guruparan18 11y agoThere is something inherent beautiful to things that are symmetrical.
- Retra 11y agoThere is nothing inherently beautiful about symmetry (or anything else for that matter.) Most things that are symmetrical look artificial, manufactured and fake. What you are probably drawn to is contrast, color, flowing lines, and other things that have nothing to do with geometric symmetry.

- x0054 11y agoIt's really impressive that this kind of stuff can now be done in a browser, even if it makes the fans on my i7 rMBP scream :)
- mrmondo 11y agoUnsure as to why this is getting so many up votes: - it's not new. - it hasn't even been updated for years. - it's low resolution. - everything comes out looking tacky - I'm not sure you can call this 'art'
