Using the power of WebGL and some JavaScript Chris Milk, the US music video producer and some smart friends of his at Google have created some impressive visuals that play in real-time within a web browser without needing any plugins. These stunning graphics use the next round of HTML5 features that are sweeping across browsers now.
Fabrice Bellard has written an impressive PC emulator that actually emulates a PC with a 32 bit x86 compatible CPU. This is some really imaginative use of pure JavaScript which I’m sure no-one would have every dreamed of as it allows you to run a virtual instance of Linux inside a browser window!
It currently only works in Google Chrome 11 or Firefox 4 as it uses part of the WebGL HTML5 spec that Safari hasn’t implemented yet but is definitely worth playing around with. You can even compile C files!
