Blocks and menus

Starting to enjoy the feel of this.

Canvas controls

Experimenting with putting controls and info on the canvas - with some reciprocal scaling to make it more readable. Needs some more finesse but interesting so far.

Reworking the Sampler UI

LLM date picker

Made a new video talking through how an AI-assisted date-picker shows some of the challenges of building an AI application.

Experimenting with crop in place

Rectangles and videos and websites

I tried another video experiment. This time with a combo of tabletop and web cam and more editing.

Peeling

Different keys to peel off snapshots or videos. Trying to think of the least obtrusive but clear way to show mark what is a video vs what is an image.

Working through some canvas events

Been thinking about the fact that the 'peel' clone interaction goes all the way back to MacPaint.

Scripting an alarm clock

I made a video about scripting an alarm clock for myself.

Quite obviously trying to get more comfortable with video. At least I'm appreciating more all the work that goes into the 'maker-style' videos I watch.

Crop camera

More crop and pan experiments

Transcribing

Prompting to transcribe and summarize my tabletop notes. Real question is where do I put these for single source of truth - I think a database, maybe I use the s3 image key as the id? That should be unique and could come in handy, thought it may also limit uses for non-s3 images...

Image Paint

New on constraint.systems: Image Paint

Image pixels are copied and pasted in the direction you click and drag. An attempt to make something tactile like paint, but that "goes with the grain" of its digital nature.


Image paint experiment coming into focus.


Morning 10 minute freewrite scrawl. I want to return to the timer concept today. Build out the frontend with the iframe portals. Reduce data scope down to just startTime, duration, and label (leave calendar time blocks for later). I think the shuffle mechanism will be the real small proof of what shared data/structure could do for generated apps. read on scrawl
