A Study In Unfeasibility

andybons:

A friend from my days on the security team at work messaged me a while back to show me this project he was working on where he was using procedural models in Javascript to render a monster-like object in realtime. In short, he was showing an example of something you could do with Chrome’s new Javascript rendering engine that simply wasn’t practical due to performance limitations in most browsers at the time, but what was funny about it was how he described it while we were chatting:

Dean: but I suck … I don’t really know what I’m doing so it’s not so good.

Dean is smart. Crazy smart. Maybe now that the project is featured in the new Chrome Experiments page he’ll begin to realize how awesome he is. Nice work, dude!

This is impressive stuff. I haven’t seen JS used in this manner before, but I suppose, only now is there a Javascript interpreter that’s fast enough to get away with it.

Good work, Dean.
