JavaScript + Canvas + SM2 + MilkDrop = JuicyDrop - Nihilogic
"More canvas music visualization - now with 100% more Winamp-iness.
A couple of weeks ago I played around with music visualization using JavaScript/canvas and SoundManager2. Well, I couldn't leave it at that and as I mentioned in the comments, I had an eye on the MilkDrop plugin for Winamp. The result so far is a little Winamp lookalike called JuicyAmp with its own music visualizer JuicyDrop that feeds on Milkdrop preset files."
3D on the Web: It’s Go Time at Vladimir Vukićević
"I'm pretty excited by the Khronos announcement today. We've been experimenting with bringing 3D capabilities to the web for some time now, in the form of Canvas 3D, an experimental binding of an OpenGL subset to a HTML5 Canvas context. This work has been going off and on for the past while, mainly as a side project of mine.
For a number of reasons, I think now is the time to bring this out into a wider audience, and to figure out what an initial take of 3D on the web should look like. First, the intense focus on Javascript performance over the past year has seen tremendous improvements across all browsers. Raw language performance is getting to the point where it can keep up with the raw computational requirements of 3D."
