Really excited to share a personal project I've been working on here. If you check it out, I'd love to know what you think.

Enjoy a peek into the lives of others, from locations around the world. Hyperlax is meant to be a bit of an escape, a bit voyueristic, a bit relaxing. I think it's mesmerising. Maybe you will too!



I was transfixed. Really, really good. The music really makes it for me. It is interesting to try and guess where the mystery locations really are. Sometimes this information is included in the hashtags. I got a few right! :)


Thank you so much for checking it out :)


Like it!

Though personally i would probably not have used A tag in the navigation, so you don't get the Dashed outline if you click them, since its not a new page that loads, but otherwise I really like it. Bookmarked :)

EDIT: actually the A tags could just get the css rule (Outline: none;)


Please don't use outline:none unless you are prepared to create your own custom outline.


thanks for the feedback! Weird, I don't get the outline myself. I believe I did use outline:none; but I'll double check. What browser are you using?


It could be my browser, since i am using Firefox developer edition 40.0a2

Edit: btw, thanks for sharing site, its awesome watching people race down the highway and changing lanes in hyperlapse to relaxing music :)


In the description meta tags you wrote peak instead of peek. Sometimes if a lot of short clips are played successively I only see compression artifacts.

Very nice idea and implementation though!


This is a super cool project! Totally the sort of thing I would leave open in a window while I worked.
