Show HN: Mesmereyes – classic HN demos, mashed up and remade for multitouch (kmewhort.github.io)

I started out building and tweaking visualizations of some of my favourite HN posts over the years. Then I started mashing then up, adding more ideas and taking inspiration from math papers. Here it is now, with 20 visualizations released and over 100 sandboxed.

All WebGL + TypeScript, prioritizing touch and multi-touch for the interactions.
