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.
