Yuletide greetings
Each year I do something to interest or entertain people I know and usually it is online.
| Year | Title and link | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | A photo collage showing what a splendid year it has been for berries and fruits. The layout is by a Python script that created a .svg file for conversion into a .jpg file using Inkscape. |
|
| 2024 | A controllable animation inspired by our visits to exhibitions at the Royal Academic of Arts this year, after Sarah's work was included in their Summer Exhibition. |
|
| 2023 | Four good ideas I came across in 2023. |
|
| 2022 | A simple collage of images related to sustainability, prompted by the high cost of energy this winter and a bitterly cold period during which our boiler failed. |
|
| 2019 | A story about a community that clings to life by pragmatism and consideration for each other. |

| 2018 | Thanks to many usually-unsung heroes. |
|
| 2017 | An optimistic story about a more sustainable future and how it might come about. |
|

|
| 2011 | A surprisingly satisfying game with swirling snow flakes. See how many pretty effects you can achieve. |
|
| 2008 | The letters of the message and scrambled at first but resolve using a force directed algorithm. Simple but quite pleasing. |
|
| 2007 | Another story about Osber, Pieder, and Berzifal. This also comes in a children's version and an audio version. |
|
| 2006 | The frightening story of how Osber, Pieder, and Berzifal come to town. This also comes in an audio version. |
|
| 2005 | Some risky scenarios to think about. |
