What better way to kick off this week's theme than with news of our own transformation?

After 18 years, we have said goodbye to the Fog Creek name and we are now Glitch. Read the official announcement here, and learn about how we came to this decision, take a look at what's coming up in the future, and hear about our new slate of advisors. Also, we're hiring!

Sonification sounds like a relatively new term, but it has been around for well over 100 years! The concept involves using non-speech audio (like a musical tone) to convey data. Both sonar and the clicks of a Geiger counter are two such examples of sonification.

In his recent talk at the Web Audio Conference this year, software engineer and Glitch user Nick Violi (@nvioli) showed a demo of sonification using Glitch and Google Analytics! View his slides and have a listen at the sound of real-time website traffic!

Are deep space radio signals like the famous Wow! signal from the 1970s evidence of a world out there beyond our own? Only time will tell, but until then, Root Angel (@acgillette) has provided the Internet with an app providing mysterious dispatches from Mars. Keep clicking for new entries from the Red Planet!

Digesting the ongoing Twitter timeline can be like drinking from a fire hose. So it's always fun when people like Lesley pull off a really entertaining feat like slyly meting out the lyrics to Toto's  over the span of about a month. It's really one of those fun "blink and you'll miss it" type of experiences that make you love the Web.

In case you missed it, Glitch user Brian Arnold Sinclair (@brianarn) created an app that not only displays Lesley's tweets, but also syncs them to a video of ! It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from this app!

If you're having a rough day, take a breather and go to the islands! Well, maybe not , but this app from Glitch user Brian Jones (@jonesbp) is a good substitute! Islands Division is a riff off the famous Joy Division album cover, with a bit of a generative art twist inspired by Web tinkerer Tim Holman. Clicking the circle arrow will generate a new landscape and color scheme, and you can just sit back and watch the gently undulating waves. I'm feeling more relaxed already!

This Week's Featured Illustrator: Jonathan Vermersch

Have you seen our highlighted apps this week on the Glitch homepage? Each app is accompanied by the artwork of London-based illustrator Jonathan Vermersch. His work is character-based, drawing on vibrant colors and surreal elements to create his unique and fantastic style.

Have a look at this week's featured illustrations, and head over to Jonathan's website to see more of his awesome work!

One of the features that makes Glitch great for anyone is the ability to take an app, remix it, and transform it into something new! These apps are just a sample, and you're only limited by your own imagination. Create something awesome today!

Transform!

Extra extra! Read all about it! XOXO 2018 has come to a close, and we're still giddy off of the reaction of the Art+Code sessions from this year's event. From generative art to renegade GIFs across San Francisco, Art+Code really showed the wonder and magic that still exists out there on the Internet. Check out our recap and learn about how it all went down!

While you're browsing the web, listen to the latest episode of Product Hunt Radio with our CEO, Anil Dash. He talks with guest Allison Esposito and host Ryan Hoover about the early days of the web, what's changed since then, and the challenges with building community online.

Every project needs to start somewhere, but often times that first step can be the hardest one to take. If you're stuck in analysis paralysis mode, then Glitch user Jillian Meehan (@jilliangmeehan) has just the app for you. Shouldidoit is a simple yet handy exercise for figuring out whether or not you should do a new project. Apps like this can really help decrease your anxiety around starting something new!

Monica Dinculescu is one of our most prolific creators, and her work embodies that spirit of creation that Glitch is all about. Her app Color Gradient was a way for her to lighten, darken, and blend colors in JavaScript. Remix the app and use whatever colors you like to make your own color gradients!

Spotify's algorithms for making playlists are top notch, but have you ever wanted to make collections out of artists or albums? If so, Spotify's head of engineering (and Glitch user) Josh Blaney has the tool for you. Collections uses Spotify's web API to add artists and albums to collections that live as playlists on your account. Take a look at Spotify's collection page for more Glitch apps!

Did you know that 10,000 is just 2 x 5? Or that 1999 is a prime number? In case you didn't, then you can keep those bits of knowledge for your next trivia night. But if you're interested in prime numbers and factorizations, then Glitch user and mathematician Christian Lawson-Perfect (@christianp) made an app that generates a never-ending list of both. As he puts it, "you can't scroll faster than the absolutely most naive algorithm imaginable can keep up with." (I tried, too. The app just keeps going!)

This really fun Bongo-Cat app from our design engineer Tiffany Tseng (@scientiffic) came about in such a cool way. Earlier in the week during our regular design review, we learned about the bongo cat meme. Tiff mentioned wanting to make an app around this, and a few hours later Bongo-Cat Creator was born. Upload the song of your choice, and use your keyboard to play along with the furry feline!

Tiff's app has already gained some fans, including a few who have remixed bongo cat in some interesting and fun ways!

Educators across the country are using Glitch to teach the next generation of coders. You may remember Prof. Greg McVerry (@jgmac1106) from our article about how Glitch is used in the classroom. In that article, he talked about creating resources to help educators move into open educational resources, and his Indie Web Course Template is the first step to making that happen. Remix the course template and check out the detailed README for information on how you can customize this for your own course!

This Week's Featured Illustrator: Ailsa Johnson

You may have noticed the illustrations of Ailsa Johnson on the Glitch homepage this week. The British-born, Tokyo-based illustrator's distinct flat style mixes vibrant colors with slightly rough textures and sharp angles.

Have a look at Ailsa's illustrations for our featured apps, and see more of her work at her website!

Sometimes, the solution to the issue you're having is just right outside of your grasp. Like this quote from Questlove implies, our thoughts are the launchpad from where great ideas take flight. Hopefully these apps inspire you to "do it yourself" and create something awesome!

Doing It Yourself

The early days of the Web were full of curious little websites. Whether you had a simple Geocities page or a tricked out Blackplanet or MySpace profile, those beginning days felt like a totally different space than the Internet we know today.

But guess what -- that whimsical, creative web is still out there, and we want to help you rediscover it! The Glitch team has created the Wayback Importer, an easy way for you to grab your first website from archive.org and bring it back to life on Glitch. Everything old is new again!

Every day, there seems to be a new incident in the news that makes you shake your head in disbelief. Comedian and New York Times bestselling author Baratunde Thurston worked with Color of Change and the team here at Glitch on an app that debuted at this year's XOXO in Portland, Oregon.

Living While Black cycles through ten headlines and asks you to figure out which one is real and which one is fake. The answers may surprise you!

Do you remember jumping on a trampoline as a kid? Nothing beats that fun feeling of leaping into the air and continuously bouncing higher and higher. Educator and Glitch user Justin Riley (@OhioFi) brought back that fun feeling in this app which features multicolored robots jumping joyfully on a trampoline. Try remixing the project and adding some variety to the robots!

If you've been active on Twitter for a few years, chances are you've "favorited" a number of tweets from other users. Over time those can add up, and you may not remember which tweets you liked, made you smile, or gave you a good laugh.

Now there's a solution to ths problem! 15-year-old Samarth Jajoo (@jajoosam) whipped up a project over the span of a weekend called the Twitter Wayback Machine. Just type in your Twitter username, and the app will show you a new tweet from your list of favorites. Best of all, there's no app permissions!

When I was younger, tilt cards were everywhere -- postcards, trading cards, bookmarks...you name it! The process goes back to the late 16th century, and it's still used today as an effective way to add interactive effects to a static print design.

Front-end developer and Glitch user Dan Wilson (@danwilson) built a nifty app that takes this lenticular design process and applies it to an image via CSS transforms. Remix the app and add your own images!

Space: the final frontier. The vast expanse beyond our world has captivated humans since time immemorial. Satellites and probes give us an idea of what else lies past Earth's atmosphere, and our imaginations fill in the rest.

That sense of wonder is behind this planet generating app from Glitch user Root Angel (@acgillette). Click the randomize button to create a new planet, and let the soothing, meditative music take you to another world!

We're honored to have the work of Tokyo-based illustrator Yacoyon for our featured apps this week! Yacoyon's style draws from fashion and video game culture, and the result is a mix of modern style and retro pixel art.

Check out Yacoyon's illustrations for our featured apps, and see more of Yacoyon's work on Instagram!

As industrial designer George Nelson says, you don't think your way to creative work; you work your way to creative thinking. This week's collection of apps are proof that the web can still be a fun place full of creativity. And Glitch is just the community to help you (re)discover that!

Space and Time

But first, we're excited to tell you about this evening's Art+Code event at XOXO fest. MC'd by our own Director of Community Engineering, Jenn Schiffer, it's an evening of creators working at the intersection of art and technology. Included in the incredible line-up are some of our favorite creators from the Glitch community, including Monica Dinculescu, Omayeli Arenyeka and Mozilla Open Web Fellow, Becca Ricks.

OK, let's get into the apps! First up we have "incredible-spinners", an AI-powered interactive music experience created by software developer and music hacker Tero Parviainen.

Tero has combined Google Magenta MusicVAE, Magenta.js, TensorFlow.js, Tone.js, and three.js to create a musical experiment in which you can listen and move around a grid of musical measures generated by a neural network, creating your own musical patterns.

Do yourself a favor though and try it out on your desktop computer. This thing is making TensorFlow work hard in the browser and your mobile phone will struggle to keep up.

 is a random  episode generator which links off to Netflix for easy viewing. Cory Evan Wright captures the randomness of TV re-runs with this little app that's perfect for cord-cutters and Friends fans alike.

With "curator-and-the-machine", Stefan Bohacek explores ideas of creativity and authorship. You can curate the output of a random generative art script and share it via the @curator_machine Twitter bot. Currently, every visitor sees a unique artwork, but what if everyone saw the same thing? Should curating the artwork reset it? and should the curator have more influence over the art? Try it out and see what you think.

Inspired by a lightning talk about generative art, Matt DuLeone created "tranquil-island" - a generative art maker. Change the background color, line thickness, cell width and shape to customize and create your own generated art masterpiece.

We've featured Olivia Jack's Hydra before. It's a set of tools for livecoding networked visuals. But it has been great to see the amazing things being created by music hackers and tinkerers using it on Glitch.

Of course, the above aren't the only great apps you can find on Glitch this week -- we regularly feature projects on glitch.com itself. And starting this week, we're doing something new and fun. We'll be featuring different artists illustrating the featured apps, to help you discover the coolest new projects and show off the community's creativity.

So this week, our inaugural set of featured apps have been illustrated by Roman Muradov. Muradov is an award-winning artist who is Adjunct Professor at California College of the Arts. He's worked with major publications like The New Yorker and the New York Times, as well as tech brands like Dropbox and Notion. See more of his work on Instagram and his website.

Talking Tech with Baratunde Thurston 🗣️🎙️

We haven't just spent the week playing around with awesome apps though (we pinky promise!) We squeezed in some time to chat with comedian and best-selling author Baratunde Thurston. We got into topics like the current climate around data privacy, social media, and why he uses humor to tackle tough topics. Check it out.

Randomosity!

We've partnered with Color of Change on an online hackathon called #Remix4Change. The aim is simple: empower Black voters by turning technology into power. Color of Change has built an app that displays a list of your local representatives, along with current bills in your state categorized by bail, police, prison, or discrimination - all issues with long term effects on some of the lives of people in your community.

How would you customize this app to help people know about proposed legislation or where your city's representatives stand on the issues that matter most? The app is ready for remixing; submit your version of the app by August 26, and we'll share the best entries on social media! You got this!

NBC's  is a smash-hit comedy. It's spawned some memorable characters and quotes, and it's beloved by critics and fans all over the world.

Klaudia Rozgonyiova (@EffingKay), a software developer at the BBC, loves the show too and created a Glitch app that displays random quotes. Just click on Tahani to get started!

This Is What It Sounds Like When Machines Learn

A lot of machine learning is about curve-fitting, and tuning a guitar is a lot like curve-fitting too! That got Pablo Samuel Castro thinking. 🤔

The senior research software engineer at Google created "sound-of-learning", where you can literally hear a guitar being tuned as a machine learns how to create a satisfying E chord! 🎸

Ghana-based software developer Clinton Mbah put together a useful little utility app that grabs a list of articles for any Medium user. Just add a username to the end of the URL (like so!) and "mdm" will return the posts of any Medium user in JSON format. Handy!

Interaction designer Joel Gethin Lewis, created an augmented reality web app that puts a recreation of his head out into the world! 🤯

Created in WebXR, a proposed cross-platform Web API for creating AR and VR experiences, it needs Mozilla's experimental WebXR Viewer on iOS to run. But it's totally worth getting and playing around with to get a glimpse of the future (so long as you have the right kit!)

We're no strangers to an emoji or two here at Glitch, so it'll come as no surprise that we love "whac-emoji"! Created by Berlin-based Glitch user 1337core, it combines emojis with a 'whack-a-mole' type game. You'll be flattening 👻, and crushing 🦂 for hours. Just make sure that you don't bash a 👶 though!

This week's creators show that by sharing our creations with the world we can make people laugh, show folks new ways of doing things, and even give people the information they need to improve their lives. So Tharp might be right -- creativity can be tough, but it's definitely something worth fighting for!

Floating Heads and Musical Machines

We’ve seen all kinds of people use Glitch to build the apps of their dreams. One of the most popular reasons that folks use Glitch is for learning. As a matter of fact, harnessing that power is how we started 2018:

Teaching someone to code can be quite an endeavor, but with Glitch’s tools for collaboration, customization, and our take on version control, you’ve got everything you need to succeed. Let’s take a closer look at some more resources available for educators on Glitch as you get ready to go back to school.

The React Starter Kit is a free 5-part video course that includes interactive code examples to help you begin learning React. It includes interviews by our community engineering lead, Jenn Schiffer, with software engineers at some of the Web’s top companies talking about how they use React on a daily basis. Together, the components of the React Starter Kit are an excellent way to help bridge the gap between learning coding concepts and their real-world applications.

If diving straight into React is a little too much, try the Website Starter Kit. Like the React Starter Kit, this is a free video course with interactive code examples, but the focus here is on creating a website using HTML, JavaScript, CSS, and Node.js. Along with Jenn, you’ll see two members of our team, Jude Allred, and Niki Simonutti, as they help explain the languages that make up the Web that we know today.

When you visit the Glitch homepage, you’ll find several collections of apps based on specific themes. Let’s take a closer look at a few of them.

“Hello world” isn’t just a simple phrase — it’s also well known as a starter program that introduces you to a programming language. Our Hello Worlds collection aggregates dozens of Glitch projects that provide basic steps for getting started with a number of different languages and frameworks. Learn how to run console applications on Glitch, get started creating VR experiences on the web with A-Frame, or make your own website using the HTML5 boilerplate!

Our Learn to Code collection is perfect for hands-on teaching. This selection of Glitch projects takes learning to the next level with demos, courses, and other interactive examples. If you want to get an intro on machine learning, check out Hello Tensorflow and read up on Tensorflow.js. CSS Houdini is an interactive presentation about Houdini, a cutting-edge web tech! This collection also contains a few primers on Node.js, including Node School and Node Beginner. You can even learn how to write your own drum machine (complete with annotated source code!)

Building Blocks is a collection that focuses on databases, APIs, and some of the other basic parts of modern web development. Need to learn how to send an email using SendGrid? There’s a project for that. Stuck on authorization for your PWA? We’ve got a few example projects using Dropbox, Foursquare, or Slack that may help. We even have a nifty hackathon starter that you can use as a boilerplate for Node.js web applications!

We also publish You Got This! Zine in both print and digital formats. Our first issue was all about making web apps with Node.js, including tips for new coders, contributions from expert developers Cassidy Williams, Saron Yitbarek, and Steve Klabnik, and links to Glitch projects so you can extend what you’ve learned. In our second issue, we turned our focus to React.js, including more tips and contributions from developers, and we included profiles of some exciting creators on Glitch. We even launched a little mini-zine about Webpack on Instagram and Twitter!

Best of all, the Glitch community has helped create resources help others learn new technologies. Mozilla developer, Brian Peiris (@brianpeiris), constructed a remixable example project that illustrates machine learning concepts.

Programmer Emily Cain (@EMCain) created a fun Glitch app that lets you make your own doggie meme images. Remix the app for yourself and check out the extensively detailed README to help you and your students build their own!

Software developer and educator, Kelly Lougheed, has created a number of tutorials that guide you through learning and using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and WebVR. Like ‘Dark & Stormy Night’, a beginner-friendly tutorial introducing HTML and CSS as you create a simple stormy night scene using CSS animations. As well as ‘JavaScript Magic 8 Ball’, a WebVR ball pit with physics and many more.

Meanwhile, the crew at Botwiki has created a bevy of bots for all sorts of purposes. Start with a simple Twitter or Tumblr bot and see where your imagination takes you!

Whether you’re teaching a class or just learning on your own, there’s a multitude of resources available on Glitch to help you reach your goals. Our starter kits, collections, and zines take coding concepts and make them approachable, interactive, and most of all…fun! Along with these tools, you also have a friendly community to back you up. We can’t wait to see what you create!

Free and Open Learning Resources for All

Nowadays, we're flooded with prompts online that want your email address. All these subscription services can really add up, but if you can't beat 'em, then why not join 'em?

That's what Glitch user Kristen Cabrera (@kris10cabrera) had in mind when she created Subscribe! Use this nifty generator to get in on the mailbox mania and watch the results roll in! Each click brings you a randomly generated subscription prompt.

(Results and delivery are not guaranteed, of course 😜)

Most radio stations often cycle through a playlist of whatever songs are hot at the moment. Maybe you've got Nicki Minaj playing on one station, while another is playing a song from Death Cab for Cutie. But as the hours pass, have you ever thought about how many male artists are being played versus female artists?

That's where Glitch user Corey Dutson (@cdutson) and his app Radio Station Music Gender Analysis Tool comes in. According to Corey, the app is "a combination of techs one could use to scrape a website's playback data in order to assess gender disparity in song distribution." Clever!

Corey has made a remixable version of the app you can use to try out for your favorite radio station. The answers may surprise (and disappoint) you!

Some people possess a unique ability to assign sounds to colors called chromesthesia. Certain speech sounds or notes can have unique color pairings. Imagine if whenever you heard a car horn, you thought of the color red, or if the sound of water boiling was blue.

Software researcher, musician, and Glitch user Pablo Samuel Castro (@psc-g) created a fantastic app called jidiji which converts between music and colors, and it's a really cool experiment in musical representation.

Choose a preloaded song or image using the buttons in the app, or upload your own MIDI or image file, and let the magic begin! How does your favorite image sound? And what does your favorite song look like?

If you live in a major metropolitan area, it can be easy to forget how readily available high speed Internet access can be. Because of this, we might not notice just how technically heavy a lot of the Web can be. Visiting a website that takes a second to load on your desktop may load much slower depending on your data connection. Some websites have helped to make this process easier by introducing a low-bandwidth "reader view" version of their website, but it's not a global standard.

That's why this Glitch app from software engineer Ben Kuhn (@benkuhn) is so important. Just enter the URL of your choice, and the app will present a stripped down "reader view" version of the website. Very cool! Even better, he was able to create this app on Glitch in spite of the low-bandwidth he had while coding from a small city in Senegal.

Fortnite is one of the most popular video games out right now, and so is Splatoon! Both games involve teamwork and collaboration, so Glitch user Uve Avanto (@uveavanto) decided to combine the two into this delightful WebVR experience! Watch as Callie and Marie from Splatoon do one of the victory dances from Fortnite!

Like Becky Simpson says in the quote above, the key goal with Glitch is to just get started when it comes to creating. Maybe these apps will help inspire you to make something awesome today. If it does, then let us know what you create!

A Delight for the Senses

Fancy packages with cut-out handles and unique closures are beautiful to look at, but designing and constructing them can be difficult. Tiffany Tseng (@scientiffic), has been learning about packaging design lately and discovered a way to convert beautiful packaging templates that she's discovered into SVG files!

SVG Tracer makes vector graphics from packaging template images, including creating solid and dashed lines for cutting and scoring. Tiffany detailed the whole project on Medium, which is definitely worth a read if you want to see her creative process behind the project.

Lots of print and web designers use placeholder text for typesetting purposes to get a sense of how text will look in their work. Often times, this placeholder text used is a series of Latin phrases which starts with the words "lorem ipsum", but Glitch user Kate Beard (@sbinlondon) has put a fun spin on this time-honored tradition.

Bee Ipsum replaces the standard lorem ipsum text with lines from  -- a really great way to inject some personality into your work. Just type in how many sentences you need, click the button, and you're in business! (Or is that buzzness?)

Artist, creative coder, and educator Sean Catangui (@seancaat) is one of the most prolific creators on Glitch, and his latest work is with high school students at Gakko, Lisha Zheng and Vithya Srikumar.

They recently built a drawing app where you can make all types of shapes and sketches directly in your browser! There are also undo, redo, and erase features, and when you're ready to share your masterpiece, just right-click on your creation and save it to your desktop.

Glitch user Ben Garvey (@bengarvey) builds projects on Glitch that really make you slow down and take a moment. His latest project is called take-a-walk, and the real beauty of the app unfolds the longer you leave it running. Colorful lines slowly fill the browser with squares and paths, and it's really quite mesmerizing.

Check out Ben's profile to see more of his work!

If these projects are inspiring  inner artist, then say hello to pollock.exe, a generative art bot from Botwiki.

Remix the generative art starter project and have your own generative Twitter bot in no time!

Of course, Glitch is more than just a platform for awesome visual work -- it's also versatile enough to use for a number of other applications.

Prisma uses Glitch in their blog entries to introduce GraphQL Middleware, and they include a demonstration of how to install the library and show developers how it works. Glitch is an easy way to show developers how to use your API, and they love it!

Answering Questions on Stack Overflow with Glitch!

Over on Stack Overflow, Harish Karthick was having an issue with implementing an add to home screen (A2HS) shortcut for his PWA. After listing out the code for his JSON file, Mathias came to the rescue with a solution to the issue that he built using Glitch.

Check out the Add to Home Screen Tester below, and remix it to use for your own project!

We've featured quite a variety of projects this week! Some are about making beautiful art, and others are about solving problems. The one thing they have in common though, is that their creators were willing to give things a go, even if they hadn't created something like it before. As Patrick McKenzie points out in the quote above, we're all learning all the time. And creating a project on Glitch is a great way to try things out and learn something new. What will you create today?

Busy Bees, Boxes, and Bots

I'm obsessed with this great VR game built on Glitch called Crystalis. Created by Alfredo Consebola as part of the 2018 Virtuleap WebXR Hackathon, the retro-inspired immersive action puzzle is versatile enough to be played on your desktop, mobile device, or using a VR headset like Oculus Go. Match trios of floating gems and watch as the spacescape comes alive with colorful constellations!

Remember the game show ? Contestants are presented with a prize behind one of three doors, and they have an opportunity to either keep the current prize or trade it for what lies behind the remaining doors. Which would you choose?

Glitch user Ido Green (@greenido) created an app which simulates this paradox up to 1,000,000 times to give you an idea of the outcome. Surprisingly, Ido says, the odds are not 50/50 -- you'll actually win 2/3 of the time if you switch!

Variable fonts are single files that behave like multiple fonts, allowing you to change a number of different display features without installing different variations of the typeface. Apple, Microsoft, Google, and Adobe are behind the new format, and nearly 70% of modern browsers support them.

Mustafa Kurtuldu, a design advocate at Google and a Glitch user (@mustafa-x), built an app which lets you experiment with variable fonts so you can see how they behave. Select any of the three typefaces, and use the sliders on the left to change the corresponding property. Advancements like this are the future of typography on the web!

Glitch users @jon and @snotskie created Sneaky Epic -- a game about software design that's being dubbed as "team deliberation training meets Jackbox meets Secret Hitler meets Werewolf meets Coup." (That does sound pretty epic!) You'll need at least five people to play, so gather some co-workers and give it a go!

There's a lot of fun environments that you can create on Glitch using AFrame and WebVR, and Giltch user Kelly Lougheed (@kellylougheed84055) built an app that mimics that old childhood favorite -- the ball pit. This ball pit has physics control, so try tilting from side to side to see the balls react.

The Virtual Reality Diversity Initiative (VRDI) began in 2017 as a way to provide events and skills to underrepresented groups in media and technology who are considering a career in VR. The initiative is back for its second year, and a recent VRDI event paired VR pros and newcomers in the United Kingdom.

As you can see, you're only limited by your own imagination when it comes to creating on Glitch. Get inspired by the friendly community here, then get started making your own apps. You got this!
