Each specimen is a navigable 3D object — a cell, a molecule, an attractor, a polynomial surface, a gear assembly. Drag, magnify, isolate, cross-section. The atlas grows one plate at a time.
Specimen-plate aesthetic. 7 cell types — white blood, neuron, plant, bacteria, muscle, epithelial, animal. Lobed nuclei, granular cytoplasm, flagella, striations, dendrites. Drag, scroll-zoom, cross-section, isolate, screenshot.
Faithful recreation of the original LinkedIn-shared "VibeCoder" screenshot. Inter sans-serif, pale-yellow highlights, post-it tip card, blue cross-section toggle. Same 3D scene as Studio — different skin.
5 specimens: Lorenz & Rössler attractors traced through 12 000 integrated points, torus knot (3,7), saddle surface z = x²−y², spherical harmonic Y(4,2). Procedural geometry where Three.js actually shines.
5 phenomena: electric dipole with integrated field lines, planetary Kepler orbits, pendulum phase space (libration vs rotation across the separatrix), drum standing wave (2,3), chaotic double-pendulum trace.
5 molecules: water (bent 104.5°), methane (tetrahedral), benzene with π-electron cloud, buckminsterfullerene C₆₀ (60 carbons on truncated-icosahedral vertices), and NaCl ionic lattice (3³ unit cells).
A textbook tells you a cell has a nucleus. A photograph fixes the nucleus in one position. A specimen lets you rotate it, isolate it, cross-section it — the same way a biologist would at a real microscope. The atlas extends this affordance to every STEM object that loses something in being flattened to a page.
Built single-file with Three.js and WebGL. No build step, no dependencies beyond a CDN.
Each plate is one HTML file you can email, deploy to localhost:8000, or
host on any static surface.
The bio plate is the proof. Math and physics are higher-value: the abstractions are actively misunderstood because they're stuck on paper. A rotating Lorenz attractor teaches sensitivity-to-initial-conditions in a way no PDF can.
Honest status: this is an exploration, not a product. No customer interviewed. No pricing. If it goes anywhere it's via curriculum publishers (NCERT / CBSE / IB) who currently ship PDFs — but that's a hypothesis to test, not a plan to execute. The atlas grows because rotating molecules is fun.
