  1. Zach Krall: SSH-based personal site

    Zach Krall's personal site is accessed via SSH rather than a browser — a creative terminal experience at ssh hi.zachkrall.com. A deliberate choice to make the portfolio interactive in the terminal rather than the web.

  2. The DALL-E 2 Prompt Book

    The DALL-E 2 Prompt Book was an early community-produced guide to prompt engineering for image generation — cataloging styles, artists, modifiers, and composition techniques that reliably produce specific visual outputs. A snapshot of the craft before the field became saturated with guides.

  3. multimodal.art

    multimodal.art is a gallery and community for AI-generated art from multimodal models — DALL-E, CLIP-guided diffusion, and related text-to-image systems. Captured the early 2022 moment before Stable Diffusion democratized AI image generation.

  4. OBLIVION GFX — GMUNK

    GMUNK's portfolio page for the screen graphics designed for the 2013 sci-fi film Oblivion — HUD displays, data visualizations, and interface animations created for the film's UI aesthetic. Brad Munkowitz is one of the defining figures in sci-fi film UI design.

  5. How I VTuber — Xe Iaso's Setup

    Xe Iaso's technical walkthrough of their VTubing setup — the software, avatar rigging, face tracking, and streaming stack used to stream as a virtual character while keeping a developer's privacy. Practical guide at the intersection of live coding and virtual avatar streaming.

  6. What Do Data Visualizations Look Like As Food?

    A dinner party where data visualizations were served as edible food — a conceptual art project probing what happens when you make abstract data tangible and consumable in the most literal sense. An interesting edge case in the 'embodied cognition' design space.

  7. NASA Designs Travel Posters for Exoplanets

    NASA's JPL-designed travel posters for exoplanets in the style of 1920s-1930s WPA travel prints — one of the most successful examples of science communication through design. The posters made exoplanet science broadly legible without dumbing it down.
