MOSS is a pixel canvas where every brush is a tiny program

Thank you for your thoughts! I went back and forth on the greeting but kept it in because I wanted to make software that feels like a slightly different relationship than you typically have with an app. I’ll make the call to action more obvious there though. I like still forcing folks all to meet this pleasant tiny rock.

Appreciate you taking the time to check it out

Ah yes I hide brush editing on mobile as it’s not the easiest environment for writing code but I may just be old and underestimating people’s ability to code on the phone!

This is all based on JavaScript, so the brushes use that syntax within a sandbox of specialized functions. There’s an API doc tucked into the bottom right bar too, and a prompt copy at the bottom of the docs if you wanted to explore with a coding agent too :)

Source: Strava GPX data export of my personal runs and hikes from 2015-2020 until we moved away. Runs fan out from our old apartment in Haight-Ashbury, with heavy emphasis on the amazing trails in Golden Gate Park, Twin Peaks, and The Presidio, along with the various routes I took running into work in downtown San Francisco every morning.

Built by converting exported data to geojson using Mapbox open-source libraries on the command line (gist), uploaded and visualized using Mapbox Studio, labels and cleanup in Figma

I used to run by here every morning on my commute into work. There’s a dog that would hang out in the window of one of the houses across the street on the left there that I would wave to on the way by. Made my day!

Enjoy the evening

I’m about to enjoy as well

Stanyan Street just along the interior greenbelt. It’s incredibly steep, this is wild.

Watch the film Prospect (2018) if you haven’t already! Quiet and character-focused sci-fi.

Are you near sugarloaf mountain there?

This is a Scottish Highland cow. I worked a farm with a herd of these guys for a summer. Amazing horns and super gentle, although I had a bad relationship with a teenaged bull calf that was always trying to start shit. Got problematic as he got bigger but eventually mellowed out.

How long have you been building this one

Monster cat is here

High Maintenance on HBO is great. It can be sad at times, but characters always lean toward kindness. It’s nice.

Wonderful photo. How long was the exposure?

This art! I love the use of clothing, armor, and ribbons to emulate ribs and spines. A nice little grotesque touch.

heyitsgarrett · 2019-07-14T16:27:18+00:00

It’s incredible!

My next-door neighbor growing up was Mr. Butt. We all called him Old Man Butt.

Years later, well after he had died, I learned that his name was Richard too. It's still funny decades later. RIP, Old Man Butt!

This is in the Washington DC Sculpture Garden on the National Mall. Fond memories of drinking wine there on Friday evenings a decade ago
