CODE & CREATIVITY
HTML ART GALLERY
Where web technologies become a canvas for artistic expression
"Art challenges technology, and technology inspires art."
— John Lasseter
HTML Art (sometimes called Creative Coding or Generative Art) explores the creative potential of web technologies. Using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, artists create interactive experiences, visual compositions, and dynamic expressions that blur the line between code and art.
This gallery showcases pieces that demonstrate the aesthetic and expressive possibilities of web technologies beyond their conventional uses.

Retro Social Science Console
By Lasse Rodeck
Explore social science concepts through an interactive, retro-tech lens. This visualization features a rotating ASCII shape — cycle through Cube, Tetrahedron, Octahedron, Pyramid, and Torus using your scroll wheel — presented within a simulated command-line interface.
The background features a dynamic Matrix-style rain effect whose flow direction (up or down) is also controlled by your scroll wheel. Hover your mouse over the central screen area to reveal pulsing keywords related to social science themes like 'IDEOLOGY', 'HEGEMONY', and 'PARADIGM'.
Load the music using the song selector (requires a direct MP3 URL hosted with proper CORS headers) and watch the shape's size pulse and the rain's speed react to the audio's amplitude via the 'Start/Stop Audio' button. Toggle between light and dark themes using the 'Theme' button, and experience occasional atmospheric screen glitches.
This piece blends generative art, data visualization concepts, and interactivity within a nostalgic digital aesthetic.
Neural Symphonies
By Lasse Rodeck
An interactive audio-visual artwork simulating the flow of information through a neural network. Watch signals pulse and decay, triggering generative soundscapes. Hover over nodes to reveal hidden patterns, click to inject new energy, and use the control consoles to manipulate the sonic texture in real-time, shaping volume, reverb, and core synth parameters. Explore the emergent resonance between sight and sound in this edgy, retro-inspired digital ecosystem.
