Field notes
The project pairs short explainers with a browser simulation that updates 120 times per second. Its material examples include gelatin, gummy bears, agar, carrageenan, and small water blobs, while the simulation models volume conservation, resistance to shear, and damping. The homepage also frames the speed difference between soft gels and steel as a reason jelly can be observed rather than merely measured.
