One of the linked demos, "rainbow surf", got me hypnotized. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKLhH_ANwIc

Some other time, I really thought that a 32 byte demo I saw is the limit of how small the binary can get and still look good.

That other demo didn't even have sound.

This is hell of a good work. A masterpiece to retire after. (or more realistically, chase it on other architectures)

Definitely thought this was a 16b parameter llm, not a 16 byte demo.

i can barely accept this is possible

I'm really impressed. Those are the things that made me love programming and computing. It's all so beautiful, it's TRULY art. It's a shame that in the industry we don't usually have the opportunities to make something like that, with AIs and all that...

This is absolutely obscene. I am floored. Sweet hack.
