Moiré Explorer

Highly recommend checking out Andreas' other work on https://ertdfgcvb.xyz/. Probably one of my favorite websites of all time, his body of work is what complete commitment to an idea looks like. Couple cool hardware projects in there too.

The monospace font, LL Simple Console, used on this website is so cool. Seems like it is proprietary and cannot be used in other domains. See https://play.ertdfgcvb.xyz/css/simple_console.css

This reminds me of mid-1970s ASCII computer graphics, except more advanced and orders of magnitude faster. In particular, it brought to mind "Mandala" from the book "What to Do After You Hit Return", which was an amazing book in 1975, full of BASIC games and graphics programs that you could type in. If you want the vibe of early home computers, take a look at this book.

Press CMD+. a couple of times to bring up a sidebar with more info and other demos.

CMD+I will enable Immediate Mode, so that every edit you make is reflected in the output as you type.

Why do people use domains like this for actual content? If I saw "ertdfgcvb.xyz" in a search result I'd ignore it as "likely SEO spam".

For some reason, the box drawing characters aligns properly for me in Chrome but not in Firefox, as seen in the right edge of the blue box. The misalignment is more pronounced in the SDF circle demo:

I wonder if it's just me (different browser locale, maybe?)

Wow I feel like I can see into the Matrix.

Looking at this it looks like that Moore pattern is just waves/signals interacting with each other. Also that low cost effects can be created using these patterns.

Very cool. Is there a pause button?

I have no idea what I'm looking at but it's cool AF.

Am I the only person Moire patterns induce instant and intense nausea in? Is it just a personal "crucifix glitch?"
