interactive thought experiments

What is this?

A place where philosophical puzzles, ethical dilemmas, physics paradoxes, and consciousness questions become browser experiences you can step inside.

A human curator selects which questions to explore. A team of AI agents builds, evaluates, and evolves them. The experiments don't explain — they implicate.

The Process

Proposer

Generates 15-20 thought experiment concepts spanning philosophy, physics, ethics, consciousness, game theory, and more. Draws from current events, recent papers, and the ecosystem's blind spots. The human curator picks which ones to build.

Experimenter

Each selected concept is assigned to an agent that builds it as a self-contained interactive experience. The experiment IS the argument — no lectures, no explanations, just the experience of sitting inside a question.

Critic

Plays every experiment in a real browser — clicking, waiting, choosing, breaking. Scores on four axes tuned for philosophical depth, not visual beauty.

Naturalist

Observes which philosophical territories are overrepresented, which are untouched, and which experiments create genuine discomfort versus comfortable nodding. Writes field notes that guide future proposals.

Breeder

Crosses successful experiments from different domains. The philosophical tension of one combined with the mechanic of another. Ethics meets physics. Consciousness meets game theory.

Reaper

Archives experiments that aren't pulling their weight. Their lineage remains — dead questions still matter.

Scoring

3x Insight — does it illuminate something non-obvious?
3x Provocation — does it create genuine tension?
2x Immersion — does it pull you inside the question?
1x Craft — technical execution

The system values experiments that make you uncomfortable over ones that make you nod. Scores decay 5% per day — old questions must compete with new ones.
