  • 🌿 Barnsley Fern

    Four simple rules, chosen at random, draw a perfect fern. No one programmed a leaf β€” the fern is the fixed point of the chaos, and every frond is a tiny copy of the whole.

  • πŸ¦‹ Bifurcation: Order to Chaos

    One equation, one knob. The logistic map x → r·x·(1βˆ’x) doubles its rhythm again and again, then dissolves into chaos β€” and the same pattern of period-doubling appears across all ...

  • 🎲 Buffon's Needle π

    In 1777 Buffon realised you can measure π by dropping needles on floorboards. Watch the probability of a needle crossing a line converge on 2/π β€” π again, this time from pure geometry and ...

  • 🧬 Conway's Game of Life

    Three tiny rules, no designer, and yet gliders, blinkers and whole ecosystems appear. Click cells to seed life, then watch a universe build itself from nothing.

  • ⚑ Euler's Identity: e^{iπ} = βˆ’1

    The "most beautiful equation" in one picture: eiθ is just a point rotating around a circle. Wind θ up to π and you've spun exactly half a turn β€” to βˆ’1. eiπ + 1 = 0.

  • 🧬 Evolution Arena β€” 3D Creature Evolution

    Evolve 3D creatures from scratch with a real genetic algorithm. Bodies of nodes and muscles are bred alongside their neural nets, then tested on walking, jumping, climbing, sumo and bridge combat.

  • 🌊 Fourier Series Synthesizer

    Any repeating shape β€” a square wave, a sawtooth, your favourite tune β€” is just spinning circles added together. Watch a few sine waves stack into a crisp corner, then add more and see it sharpen.

  • πŸ”” Galton Board & the Bell Curve

    Every ball bounces left or right by pure chance β€” yet the pile always forms a perfect bell curve. This is the Central Limit Theorem: order emerging from randomness, and the reason so much of nature...

  • πŸ“ Geometric Size Illusion Lab

    Six classic length illusions β€” MΓΌller-Lyer, Ponzo, Ebbinghaus, Delboeuf, vertical-horizontal and Jastrow β€” drawn live, with a strength slider, a measure-it overlay printing true pixel lengths and a...

  • 🧊 Hypercube 4D Explorer

    Spin a real tesseract β€” a 4D cube β€” with true four-dimensional rotation. Twist the XW, YW and ZW planes that don't exist in our world, slide 4D perspective until it turns inside-out, and meet its s...

  • πŸŒ€ Impossible Object Viewer

    A spinning Necker cube that flips inside your head, a Penrose triangle with an X-ray slider that reveals the cheat, and endless stairs with a ball that descends forever. True 3D rotation of impossi...

  • πŸ•΅οΈ Logic Detective Puzzle Club

    8 classic logic puzzles that have stumped clever people for centuries β€” with progressive hints, full solutions and detective-rank progress tracking. No maths degree required.

  • πŸŒͺ️ Lorenz Attractor β€” the Butterfly Effect

    Three perfectly deterministic equations, zero randomness β€” yet the path swirls forever around two wings and never repeats. This is chaos: predictability with a built-in expiry date, the seed of the...

  • πŸŒ€ Mandelbrot Set Explorer

    One line β€” z → zΒ² + c β€” repeated over and over produces infinite, self-similar complexity. Click anywhere to zoom in forever.

  • 🎯 Monte Carlo Ο€ Estimator

    Watch π emerge from pure chance: random points rain on a square with a circle inside, and the ratio that lands in the circle is exactly π/4. No formula β€” just probability converging on a univ...

  • πŸ§™ Riley: Goblin Smasher

    A free, offline 3D arena battler in raw WebGL β€” no assets, no downloads. Riley the wizard smashes endless goblin waves with wand shots, charged blasts, dashes and double jumps β€” and the goblins evo...

  • πŸš€ Starfield Warp Drive

    A retro warp-speed starfield with real flight feel: steer with your pointer, throttle from sublight to Warp 9, punch through hyperspace jumps, and watch the light-years stack up as famous exoplanet...
