Really cool. Related, I asked Claude something like "create a multimedia interactive web experience with audio and mouse interactions" a few months back and it produced something fairly similar. My favourite follow-up prompt was "Make it more Stranger Things" and it turned the background music - which it generated - into a pulsing synthwave sound.

I really need to post these art experiments as some are truly mind-blowing for a machine that can't see.

View on HN

I dislike how you have directed the topic to yourself, and don't even post the thing

While I agree slightly, this could be just ignored if OT, I don’t feel like it needs to be downvoted to death. And to be fair, HN comments relating the article to personal experience is extremely common and a legitimate part of what HN is about. With only demo and no words in the post it’s hard not to wander, other comments here have done so. You could read the parent comment as being inspired enough to finish a latent project, which is perhaps the same feeling I get from most of the digital/generate/interactive art projects posted here: so cool it makes me want to resurrect mine. Meta topics that are interesting about that: 1- interactive art is often more fun to create than it is to use, and 2- many of us make our livings making and maintaining so much tech for our employers we run out of time to do it for ourselves. ;)

Sorry. You're right of course. Won't do it again.

I didn't mind it, it inspired me. I've always wanted to play with doing something like that, but I've always found it difficult to work with sound and music; and even though I use AI for tons of stuff it never occurred to me that I could also use it to help me out with that. That said, +1 to sharing a link to cool things even if they are half broken, if you think it's cool chances are someone else also will.

Here's a fun one I just made for you. Slightly inspired by OP https://claude.site/artifacts/698c26f4-2f60-428b-8ae0-ac7a29... Took about 15mins of prompting and iteration. Need to press start audio and then drag your mouse around.

The prompting is more interesting than the end result though, in my opinion.

Oh wow, I didn't know artifacts were shareable, and you can even take it to your own conversation to keep tinkering with it. I'm gonna have fun with this, thanks!

No worries as long as you respect HN guidelines which you didn’t break.
