rwcohn Posted August 1, 2012 They require a bit of investment but ultimately are rad and worth some internet minutes Check the latest one out (preferably in Chrome) here: http://clp.me/goodbye.php Here's what some random internet dude said about a previous work of mine - Chris Remo @chrisremo @rwcohn Pretty cool! I like that it revolves in time. Let me know how it goes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrHoatzin Posted August 2, 2012 Whoa nice! I may have to pick your mind sometime soon about <canvas> and whatnot as I am gloriously ignorant about its potential and applications. Like: is it possible to have DOM elements inside the canvas, or is it all javascript all the time? Can you recommend some sort of primer/crash course site?

No idea about XML man, I never use it The best crash course is just to spend a few late nights/weekends/years making experiments Either that or take one of the things that I've made and just dissect it (the source code is all there) All you need is Google Chrome and Notepad Also, bonus: http://clp.me/kingdom.html Oh, double also - did you make that parallax comic in your sig? If it is, this is a crazy coincidence that you wouldn't believe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrHoatzin Posted August 2, 2012 Yup. Hobo Lobo is me. What about the crazy coincidence wouldn't I believe? I was going to wrap up the first part of the story in the parallaxer and then build a different platform for the second part. I have been thinking about using canvases for things but I am not sure if they would solve my problems or just introduce new ones. Will have to experiment I guess. Thanks.

So I'm a big fan of this dude's stuff: http://www.reddit.com/user/Leachz/submitted/ (drug themes/mature content) He's also a fan of the stuff that I make We're working together to create some sort of interactive HTML5 story comic content for a new website The thing that I created this thread about (goodbye.php) is going to be modified and used as the homepage of said site Where you come in is the fact that the big jumping off point we originally shared was this crazy idea of a parallax comic I had no idea where I'd originally seen that concept, but I guess it was in your signature right here on the Idle Thumbs forums!

Canvas is 100% JS driven and has no DOM. You draw pixels to it. Not dom elements. If you want to have a dom to manipulate you could take a look at SVG, though. Sadly, I don't know of any good tutorial links yet, but you might want to take a look at http://creativejs.com/ Spotpilgrim: I really like the song on Goodbye! Did you use some kind of JS framework?

Glad you like the music, sadly I did not make it I don't use frameworks really, you don't really need them with Canvas That code is a combination of some old projects (linked above), converted C# salvage and a bit of scrappy new stuff (all mine) And there's also a bit of HSL stuff that I snatched from a Google search (linked in the header - it's just an implementation of well-understood colour theory) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Donk Posted August 3, 2012 This is awesome, I make music myself and have always been thinking about how easy it would be to add javascript visualizations. I did a quick experiment with livestreaming myself playing around in Ableton Live and having visualizations in a window. No fancy vis just cycled animated gifs pulled from Steve Gaynor's tumblr (http://rekall.tumblr.com/) which is trippy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gregbrown Posted August 3, 2012 So cool. I want to learn processing some day just to build this kind of stuff, or like Robert Hodgin's experiments. Also whoa I am listening to that video of Robert Hodgin and he sounds scarily like Jeff Goldblum at points. Like, I'll forget that he isn't Goldblum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
