Show HN: FastUbu – An Ultrafast Video Archive (fastubu.com)

Ubu is a 30 year old archive of strange films you'd usually only see in museums. I felt it was a perfect candidate for modern Midjourney-like performance.

Really enjoyed using Cheng Lou's pretext and masonry pattern. AI indexing, transcription, and video processing via my startup Kino's API

That's an interesting project, lots of content to explore and teh interface is pretty good and snappy. I feel this is going to be a rabbit hole I'm going to lose hours to!

Really slow and not snappy on my machine (i7-8550u). each animation takes ~60kb (avif) - way too much!

It needs to download 50 megabytes to show a single startpage.
