    Are these transitions supposed to be animated, i.e. the video changes size over a few seconds? Because it just jumps instantly to the new size for me on both Firefox and Chrome.

      Maybe prefer-reduced-motion?

    > I'd seen that effect a bajillion times without really looking too hard at it. It's just what television does. But during one of my infamous 2am can’t-sleep iPhone research sessions, I learned it actually has a name: a squeezeback.

    reminded me why i love hanging out with media folks: TouchDesigner helped me bridge tech and interactives in the best way, letting them tell me exactly whats going on in their head using their flows and lingo, and i can fast-feedback their designs iteratively while theyre in the room

      I didn't know it was called a squeezeback either. The highlight of the AMPEX ADO 1000 just put me down a rabbit hole into some history.

    author here! this was a fun one. the idea had been noodling around my head for a while- still would love to figure out a workflow for live streams for this, I'm sure it's doable but maybe not with native-only tech like it is right now

      Just use OBS and arbitrary HTML web pages, hooked up to a small backend server, in OBS's embedded browser layer type. Easy peasy and a TON of fun!
