Open source work from Organic Arts LLC. Each project is built with AI collaboration and designed to be explored, forked, and learned from.
314 playable HTML5 game prototypes. One file each, zero dependencies.
A museum of every fundamental game mechanic, reconstructed in its smallest possible form. Each prototype traces its lineage to real arcade history and is playable in 5 seconds by double-clicking. Three tracks: classic archetypes, AI archaeology overlays, and AI-originated experiments.
Chip tune synthesis engine. Every sound generated from numpy arrays.
Inspired by the Game Boy DMG sound chip (1989), MOD Tracker, and FastTracker. 168 instrument presets, 19 synthesis types, 20 DSP effects, 6 historical tuning temperaments, and an AI composition pipeline. 140+ songs rendered across EDM, classical, soundtrack, and rock.
Agent-directed animated short films. Stick figures with real performances.
Animated short films produced entirely from code. Stick figure characters deliver real performances through expressive poses, facial animation, multi-voice TTS (ElevenLabs), and ChipForge chip tune scores. Two animation engines: PIL (Python) and HTML5 Canvas.
Antifragile Spanish fluency engine. Speak first, study what breaks.
A language learning system that reverses the traditional order: speak under pressure first, extract what broke, drill that friction, speak again. Built for real-world deployment with actual people. No app, no gamification. Just markdown, prompts, and speaking.
