San Rita: A Studio Site Disguised as a Topographic Map
San Rita ditches the agency portfolio grid for something stranger: a navigable topographic landscape where projects sit like waypoints on a trail system. Some paths are open, some are closed for restoration. It's weird, deliberate, and worth inspecting.

Holiday Snow Globe
Michael Modena's holiday snow globe uses WebGPU compute shaders to create volumetric snow that actually fills the dome with mesh-based particles generating proper normals. Plus a Porsche GT3 drifts inside. It's a Christmas card that doubles as a lighting and compute shader stress test.

Find Your Way to Oz: The 2013 Chrome Experiment
UNIT9 built a full Kansas carnival in WebGL for Disney, then destroyed it with a tornado shader borrowed from neuroscience. No physics engine. No framework. Just clever faking, spatial audio, and a three-month deadline. The source is open.
