Coded entirely with Claude: an octopus plays jazz piano, every note synced to a tentacle

A Reddit user built "Octo Peterson" entirely in code with Claude's help—no AI images or video models. A single note list drives both sound and animation: each note names which of eight tentacles plays it, with the tentacle tip sitting on the exact key. Claude built the crayon renderer, jazz library, pose engine, and a sync verifier; rendering is offline via Playwright and ffmpeg at 1080x1920 60fps.
