I used Claude for two very different things this weekend: ✦ building an interactive effect for my website ✦ planning the construction of a piece of furniture I want to build on my balcony

And this is exactly why AI feels so exciting to me!

Digital world Physical world Same creative brain Same need to turn an idea into something that works

This is why I find AI genuinely useful. Not as a magic button, but as a translation layer between imagination and execution

I gave myself a brief no client would ever send.

Design a website for a private orbital travel company departing 2027. Make it feel like booking a Rolls-Royce, not a rocket. So I built Aphelion. spaceplane concept renders. orbital cabin interiors. luxury seating. full design system. WebGL animations in Unicorn Studio. the whole thing from scratch. 408 km above Earth. 90 minutes per orbit. 16 sunrises a day. this is what i think luxury space travel ux looks like

Saw an amazing Cavalry animation by Antonin Waterkeyn and had to rebuild it as a live browser interaction. Built with Claude Code: React + three.js + leva.

Challenge accepted. 🖥️

"Please don't send this to engineering" — challenge accepted.

I built NEXUS: a 5-section impossible depth interface that lives entirely in CSS and vanilla JS. No WebGL. No game engine. Just the browser being pushed somewhere it was never meant to go.

Here's what engineering would hate: → 22 concentric portal rings, each at a different Z-depth, all spinning simultaneously → Full mouse parallax across every layer in real 3D perspective space → Live neural mesh with 60 animated nodes → Quantum console with live typewriter terminal output → Real-time system vitals, threat radar, and waveform charts

Navigate with scroll or arrow keys. Move your mouse. Watch depth happen.

This is exactly the kind of UI Rive was made to push further — and I can't wait to see where this challenge goes.
