Wikipedia Philosophy
All roads lead to Philosophy on wikipedia. Pick a random article, click the first non-bracketed, non-italicised link and repeat, eventually you will land at Philosophy. I love it!
Well Howdy!
Welcome to SpoddyCoder, I’m Paul a web developer/sys-admin from the beautiful city of Bath in the UK. Here you will find experiments, music, opinions, science and other expressions of fun, happiness and well-being.
I love playing. Plato, at the very start of our journey into studied thinking, recognised the importance of play and how it should never be divorced from the serious. Play can help us understand the world, improve our personal health and enriches our relationships with others.
You will find a lot of play on this website and as such almost nothing is ever finished here. It merely represents a desire to understand, learn, grow and most importantly have fun. Enjoy playing with the toys.
Experiments
Recursive Tree
Recursive tree algoirthm written in javascript using the hmtl5 canvas tag.
Personal Space
Independent agents try to keep their personal space. A first experiment with CoffeeScript. I likey.
Mass
Newtons law of gravitational attraction is at the heart of this romp through mad solar systems. Boasts saved replays, multiplayer gaming and even a level editor.
IPFS
The IPFS promises to be the backbone of the decentralised internet... web 3.0 is now! Time for SpoddyCoders' to get on board.
Curling
A suprisingly accurate model of the superb game of curling, with peer to peer multiplayer. Look out for this getting a revisit in the run up to the 2014 Winter Olympics.
Banana Evolution
A theory with evolution at it's heart. Watch an ape choose and influence future generations of bananas.

One day I'll start blogging again. Maybe about programming, maybe about tech. Maybe about the myriad benefits of masturbation. Who knows. Until that day you'll just have to content yourselves with the experiments, music and other random stuff that I do.
