This is a place for various web things I've written which don't fit into the blog format of mikelynch.org

Creative coding

• Bookflock: part of a UTS project to visualise library collections
• FourJS: visualisations of 4D polytopes using ThreeJS
• poptimal: vibrant generative dot patterns made with d3 and Observable
• CATALOGUS STELLARUM: A catalogue of named stars with facetious definitions, implemented in d3
• SphereFlameJS: more ThreeJS code rendering flame fractals on a sphere
• A demo of weird SVG filters which I can't remember writing, I probably nicked it from somewhere in 2019 or so
