Field notes
The homepage describes a three-step process: shuffle numbers, record every operation in an algorithm run, then replay those steps as video and sound. A featured Bubble Sort example reports 256 bars, 47,684 operations, and 62 seconds. Other formats include same-list algorithm races, notoriously poor sorts, and route-finding demonstrations on a made-up city.
