Experimenting with a portfolio concept using Three.js! Rendering recent work as vertices on a geodesic sphere, and featuring the primary image as the environment for a glass model inspired by Escher. #nextjs #threejs

Built a new animated hero section based on Newton’s geometric proof of orbital motion (Principia, Fig. 6). Equal areas, equal time—scroll linked with a 10x speedup + animated intro text. #next.js #gsap

Launching something new 🚀 — www.artfx.cc I recently designed and built a new store site for my brand, Artifex. Colorful tones, unique animations, and a glimpse into the thinking behind the brand give it a bit more personality than the average online store. Live at www.artfx.cc

AI has undoubtedly changed how I work in so many ways. But honestly, I can‘t remember the last time it genuinely surprised me.

LLM responses lately are really starting to annoy. Me: *a normal but specific question* LLM: "Ohhh this is such a good question — and honestly a very you one."

Good read on building AI agents with tools. It’s Go, but the interesting part is the architecture (tooling + refreshingly primitive state management). ampcode.com/how-to-build...

Some pixels from today: trying out a randomized "serendipitous" hero section with GSAP

Site concept for Black Mesa’s Applied Sciences division. Early build.
Screenshot of a minimalist Black Mesa-themed website mockup. The interface shows a clean black layout with the Black Mesa logo in the top-left and a vertical navigation menu with links such as ‘Origin,’ ‘Applied Sciences,’ ‘Research,’ ‘Careers,’ and ‘News.’ A large headline in the center reads ‘Advancing frontier science into practical solutions for defense, industry, and global infrastructure.’ A small ‘Explore’ button sits below. The edges show a blurred aerial background of a tropical coastline.

UI micro-win today: inline click-to-edit functionality that doesn't break user flow with a modal.

In a world where products bloat with features to justify ever-growing structures, working in disconnected ways and obsessed with growth and acquisitions, doing less and doing it better is a strategic decision. And why not, also an act of rebellion. Dieter Rams would be proud.

Trying out a refractive 'relativity glass' hero for my site. Three.js + type blending + optics fun. Live demo: www.tristan.fyi/builds/relat...

Been playing with a two-step menu entrance/exit animation. Early but pretty fun. Video below — live demo here: www.tristan.fyi/builds/two-s...

If you need to justify or provide extra context for a question, put it before the question—tacking it on afterward just feels like a pseudo‑segue into personal commentary and can bias the response.

Trump: “We will restore democracy again.” Also Trump, literally immediately after: “Anyone who opposes our plan will be removed from the house.” Unbelievable #SOTU
