UNFIRED — interactive prototype
Invisible ceramic memory. Capture without administration.
Run
python3 -m http.server 4321
Then open http://localhost:4321 — the app centres itself in an iPhone-sized
viewport on desktop and fills the screen on a phone.
Share link (Vercel)
https://unfired-app-v1.vercel.app — the Vercel project unfired-app-v1 is
connected to this GitHub repo:
- every merge into
main deploys to that link automatically (static files,
no build step; settings in vercel.json)
- every pushed branch gets its own preview deployment (those URLs ask for a
Vercel login; the main link doesn't)
- each viewer's demo data lives in their browser (localStorage). When
seed.js changes, bump DEMO_VERSION in js/store.js so returning
viewers get the new demo data instead of their old copy
- files in
assets/ are cached for a year: give a changed image a new file
name rather than overwriting it
Prototype controls
The small ◍ in the corner opens the demo panel:
| Control | Shortcut | What it does |
|---|
| Shake | ⇧S | Collide — pulls 2–3 archive cards together |
| Lock screen | ⇧L | Live Activity for the current Making card |
| Watch | ⇧W | Simulated Apple Watch dictation |
| Photo scan | ⇧P | Background photo import |
| Log | ⇧K | Global capture surface |
| Onboarding | — | Replays value → permissions → boards |
| Reset demo data | — | Restores the seeded ceramicist |
Real DeviceMotion drives Shake on a phone; the keyboard shortcut is the
desktop equivalent.
Structure
js/seed.js the seeded ceramicist — 28 connected cards
js/store.js state, localStorage persistence, undo snapshots
js/ai.js deterministic mock intelligence (no external API)
js/ui.js hyperscript, sheets, pages, toasts, icons
js/screens/ items · card · share · capture · insights ·
discover · collide · studio · onboarding
assets/pieces/ background-removed cutouts of the real work
assets/process/ greenware / studio variants
assets/snap/ untouched phone-photo variants (share "before")
Everything renders from the shared card objects in the store, so a change made
in one place propagates everywhere — archive, search, insights, discover,
collide and share all read the same data.
The seeded practice
One hand-builder working in cream stoneware at cone 6. Recurring red stars,
animal figures, and a running fight with handles. The continuity is
deliberate: a glaze note logged on one card turns up in semantic search,
becomes an insight, gets reused by the AI on another card, and can end up in
Collide.
