BOYDLee Labs

Small experiments in UI, AI, and playful interaction design.

Each lab proves a mechanic I can ship into real products.

  • Demo-first philosophy.
  • Fun on purpose.
  • Proving ground for new mechanics.

LAB_001

HOLO v0.1.0

STATUS: ALIVE
TYPE: SIMULACRUM

A physiological brain and body simulacrum in the DOM. Not a chatbot, but a digital organism.

PROVES_01
Motion system stability
PROVES_02
Attention‑aware UI
PROVES_03
Emotional state modeling

01 // Anatomy

  • Pro-Frontal Cortex
    High-level cognition, behavior planning, and consciousness simulation. Modeled after biological frontal regions.
  • Thalamus & Nerve Stem
    Central routing hub. Processes "Sensory Scans" from the DOM and routes motor signals to the CSS body.
  • Neurotransmitters
    Fluid emotional weights (Dopamine, Serotonin) that tune personality state dynamically. No hardcoded logic trees.
  • Subconscious Drive
    The "AI Helper" role is a subconscious instruction set triggered by specific stimuli. Holo lives first, helps second.

03 // Design LogV 0.1.0

[CURRENT] Spectator Mode
The "Mirror" update. Recursive viewing, visual effects (glare, blur), and smart camera tracking.
v0.0.4 - Neurotransmitters
Implemented fluid chemical emotional layer (Dopamine/Serotonin) to replace boolean states.
v0.0.3 - The Body
Physics-based cursor tracking, "glance" mechanics, and Nerve Stem motor routing.
v0.0.2 - Terminal & Dialog
Initial command line interface integration and speech bubble systems.
v0.0.1 - Genesis
Concept: "Digital Homunculus". Discarding wrapper designs for a persistent DOM entity.
LAB_002

Magical Mech Game (working title)

Fun factor:
Fast-paced 16/32-bit retro pixel battles
What it proves:
High-performance game loops, retro pixel-art rendering systems, aiming math, and complex interactive physics.
Demo:
Playable alpha sandbox
LAB_003

HOLO World

What it proves:
World-building mechanics, large-scale entity simulations, and persistent states.
Demo:
World server boot sequence
LAB_004

HOLO Deck

What it proves:
Spatial interface design, immersive environments, and extending the HOLO ecosystem into 3D/spatial contexts.
Demo:
Interactive environment in development
LAB_005
STAGE: ARTIFACT → LAB (PENDING)

NeuroGalaxy

What it is:
The Discover-stage tool of the studio's 4-stage pipeline. A 3D force-directed semantic galaxy of the BoydLee Studio idea portfolio.
What it proves:
Operator-anchored AI workflows — research, scoring, generation, fusion, and scout all evaluate ideas through the lens of one specific operator profile.
Demo:
Live as artifact · awaiting Labs API integration

NeuroGalaxy graduates from Artifact to Lab once the Labs API + Credits backbone lands. Until then, you can use it as an artifact today and read the build journey on the Artifacts page.

ONE TIER DOWN

Artifacts gallery

Self-contained Claude-built work that hasn't earned Lab tier yet. Single-file React, simulations, tools — each one with its own build journey. The featured panel switches between embedded artifacts; everything else lives as a card with the build trace one click away.
