7 tools matching “art”
A virtual whiteboard with a hand-drawn feel. Sketch diagrams, wireframes, and flowcharts, collaborate live, and export to PNG or SVG. Runs entirely in the browser and drawings stay local unless you share them.
Spin a 3D globe and tune into live radio anywhere on Earth — lo-fi from Jakarta, talk radio from Reykjavik, cumbia from Bogotá. No sign-up: click a green dot and listen.
An infinitely zooming collaborative painting that never stops falling inward. Dozens of artists stitched their work into one seamless, hypnotic descent. Full-screen it, put on music, lose track of time.
A hypnotic animated globe of live wind, ocean currents, and air quality, rendered from real forecast data. Drag to spin, scroll to zoom, and lose ten minutes watching the planet breathe.
A minimalist typing test that gets out of the way: pick a mode, start typing, watch your words per minute. An optional account saves history, but everything works without one.
Drag your cursor and luminous symmetric threads bloom across the dark. Interactive generative art that makes everyone feel like a visual artist for five minutes.
An endlessly expanding isometric animation of floor 796 of a giant space station, drawn frame by frame by one artist. Thousands of tiny scenes and pop-culture easter eggs. Scroll forever.
