Experiments
In my spare time I really enjoy fiddling with code (usually javascript because it is quick and easy). Though most of my experiments go no where in a hurry, every once in a while things will come together into something worth putting out there for other people to see (and hopefully enjoy)...
A nifty little app that interactively solves a sudoku as you enter the numbers.
February 2010 (Updated June 2010)
An extremely simple cloth simulation based on point masses and 2 dimensional constraints.
August 2009
An exercise in the ridiculous. This is a simple program that converts integers into words. What makes it ridiculous is that it is only 8 lines of (completely un-readable) code.
June 2009
This just a simple physics simulator that models particles (that have velocities) and wells (which apply 'gravitational' forces). Definitely one of my favorites...
April 2009
For the project portion of a cryptography course I decided to implement a demonstration as to how quantum cryptography works. (Not recommended for older browsers...)
March 2009
A fun little doodling program that aims to mimmic a certain (messy) style of graffiti.
February 2009
A nifty little rails app that lets me keep track of one memorable 'something' everyday. I'm hoping to keep this up for at least 1 year. I suppose it is also an experiment in terms of data collection and processing.
Started January 2009, Finished January 2010
A demo of what Bacon and Eggs can do. By clicking within a simple robotic arm's reach, the arm has to solve a system of non-linear equations to get the joint angles such that it reaches the point you selected.
December 2008
This website itself is an experiment. I'm always learning new things and I think the entire site is an expression of this fact.
Started November 2008
I've always got a trillion ideas in my head, it is a shame that so few actually get implemented...
