Ethan Mollick demos fully code-generated animation: React/SVG visuals, Python-synthesized audio
emollick · x · 2026-09-26
Ethan Mollick shared an experimental render where every scene is drawn in React and SVG, with music and sound effects synthesized in Python.
The only non-code files are a few hundred small pre-generated textures (film grain, bokeh) kept as static assets to speed up rendering, plus open-source fonts. The project showcases a "everything-as-code" generative rendering approach with no video or audio media files at all.
