I’ve wanted to have a place to post small projects, maybe talk about the video game I’m writing (screenshot), the Macintosh, and other assorted matters. So here it is: Doomlaser.

Could I have picked a cheesier, more puerile name? Maybe, maybe not. But now I’m stuck with it.

I figured I’d start off with something innocuous, but also maybe kind of cool. Below is a QuickTime movie of a quartz composition that visualizes your Mac’s incoming audio in the form of floating pink cubes that leave a comet trail.

If you’re running a Mac OS X 10.4 or later, click on it, and then try shouting, clapping near your microphone, or playing really loud music.

If you are not running OS X 10.4, do not click on it. I’m not sure what will happen, but my guess is it’ll involve a dialog box.

But wait a minute, who are you?

At this point, if you’re reading this, I’m assuming you already know me. But for future posterity, allow me to introduce myself… by way of a list!
