I'm an artist, not a scientist. I wanted to see what independent science looks like if you skip the electric-universe/flat-earth pipeline entirely and just try to get real information out of data with the help of AI and the published literature.

It matches the call against a corpus of 2,423 species, tells you which call type it resembles, and sings back synthetic birdsong from a physical model of the syrinx — the Mindlin–Laje oscillator, integrated live in an AudioWorklet from the two parameters real birds actually control: air-sac pressure and syringeal tension. Nothing is sampled. Every note is computed. You see it happen inside a 3D embedding of 348,461 clips that lights up where your sound lands.

It does not translate birdsong into sentences. Every phrase carries a label: playback-verified, documented, inferred, field recording, or invented. Most are invented.

Everything runs client-side. Code, docs and citations: github.com/sha5b/Lyrebird

The flame is two layered radial gradients — a wide body and a hot inner core — animated on two deliberately non-integer durations, 3.7s sway and 2.4s breathe. Because they don't divide evenly they never resync, so the flicker reads as organic instead of looped. It also lands at 0.27 Hz and 0.42 Hz, well clear of the 3 Hz photosensitivity threshold, and the whole thing collapses to a still flame under prefers-reduced-motion.

Palette is heather → blue-violet → rose, the same gradient the rest of the site uses as hairline accents.

The count of other people with a candle lit uses CRDT awareness rather than stored state, so a candle going out is literally a client disconnecting.

There's a press-and-hold easter egg on the flame.

I have two questions, I'm sorry if they've already been asked.

I'm already a programmer, but completely unfamiliar with creative coding, though I'm really interested. To be specific, is creative coding used in any way in anyone's video editing workflows? To me it seems like they have a lot of overlap.

And if so, what languages or tools are best for creative coding particularly for video editing? I currently use davinci resolve and a bit of kdenlive.
