One component, ten framings. Each is a hypothesis about where the mechanical rhythm of a flap board would do more than any line of prose — signal craft, pace the reader, or replace a tired pattern. None are shipped yet.
Replace the homepage H1. The cycling tagline forces the reader to stay a beat longer than a static headline and the mechanical sound cue signals craft before a single pixel is scrolled.
A single strong word flaps between sections — WORK, PLAY, READ, TALK — acting as a rhythmic beat the reader expects, like a magazine's section divider page.
Pinned bottom-right of the viewport at roughly 40% scale. Announces availability, location, and current project without a push notification begging for attention.
On the About page under a 'Currently' label. A living feed of what you are reading, listening to, or working on — updated by a small content file, not a CMS.
Placed directly above the contact form. Replaces a tired 'Get in touch' heading with something alive so the form does not feel like the end of an interview.
Sits at the top of each case study, rotating through three sentences that compress that project's essence — one for the audience, one for the craft, one for the outcome.
Mechanical text removes the celebrity portrait headshot bias. Readers focus on what was said, not who said it. Ideal for clients who prefer quiet attribution.
Turns the error page into a piece of the brand. The mechanical telegraph delivers the bad news with the same care as the good — which is exactly what a portfolio promises.
Replaces the IntroAnimation on first visit. Three rotating welcomes before the page reveals — a cinematic establishing shot rather than a loading spinner.
Swap the scrolling marquee for a flapping ticker. Same idea — rotating identity lines — with mechanical weight instead of horizontal motion.
