Kapu
Kapu
Kapu is a glass making practice by Prinita Thevarajah and she takes inspiration from shapes found in children's playgrounds. The endless scroll of images down the shapes and paths was a whimsical way to incorporate her work, and also an imagination of nonlinear navigation on the web.
Every moving element on the site was hand coded with p5 and roughjs - sketchy clouds and stars, shape shifting butterfly, wiggly caterpillars and more are uniquely generated per visit. Take a stroll in our online playground ॱ⋅.˳˳.⋅˙ॱᐧ.˳˳.⋅ઇଓ

Wireloop
Wireloop
Inspired by the classic buzzwire game, Wireloop is a series of AR games built with the New York Times. Users are encouraged to move the ring ("phone"), trace and light up the dark wire, and reveal hidden shapes.
To recreate the "buzz" without access to haptic feedback, we focused on refining the visual by leveraging Spark's particle system and custom shaders, with the goal of delivering an elegant, stress-free gameplay.
