SP CART 009 / 024

1963 · IVAN SUTHERLAND · MIT TX-2

A constraint room. Light pen on a CRT, draw rough lines and ask for parallel — the program relaxes them into agreement.

→ ENTER CART

FEATURES

v1Constraint canvas — light pen draws lines, HORIZONTAL / VERTICAL / PARALLEL / PERPENDICULAR / EQUAL-LENGTH / COINCIDENT, iterative relaxation solver.
v1Nefertite — recursive sub-picture demo with two EYE instances, three master variants; the original 1963 winking face.
v1Pratt-truss simulation — APPLY LOAD distributes deflection through tension (amber) and compression (blue).

v4Pointer events — touch IS the light pen. CRT receives pointerdown/move/up/cancel; touch-action:none on the drag surface; 44px bank rows on coarse pointers.

KEYBOARD

EscClose any open overlay (Help, About, chapters, Rooms).
No undo — Sketchpad had none in 1963. Use CLEAR and start fresh.
clickDRAW / SELECT / SOLVE / TANGENT / CONCENTRIC live in the bank buttons (no shortcuts — period button-box affordance).

CANON CART 001B / 024

B-SERIES · THEORY WING · AUDIO

→ ENTER CART

FEATURES

v117 tracks on a horizontal year-ribbon timeline; ElevenLabs-voiced readings; PREV / NEXT / PLAY controls; AUTO ▸▸ continuous play; resume pill.
v2Six playlist pills (ALL / BEFORE THE SCREEN / GEOMETRY ON THE CRT / LIGHT + SHADING / PROCEDURAL + BEHAVIOR / WHAT IS A PIXEL); continuous play scoped to active playlist; progress persistence (saved every 5s to classicery-canon-progress-v1, keyed by slug; "↺ RESUME FROM mm:ss" pill when revisiting).

KEYBOARD

No keyboard shortcuts — CANON is a player, not an editor. PLAY / PREV / NEXT / playlists / transcripts are all visible tap-targets.

THE BRIDGE

The Suite Bridge is the 1990-era pipeline made portable. Four carts participate, with directionality matching the period workflow:

PS — outbound only. Marquee crop or whole canvas, PNG-encoded.
AI — outbound and inbound. Send selected path or whole canvas as tight-viewBox SVG; place PS images as locked <image> and AI vectors as rawPath entries.
PM — inbound only. Place lists bridge artifacts alongside built-in samples; both image and vector load onto the loaded cursor as graphic blocks. PM is the layout terminal — in 1990 you took PostScript to the LaserWriter, not back into another tool.
DW — inbound only. PS image → <img> dataURL; AI vector → inline <svg>. DW is the web terminal — designers in 1997 published pages, not round-tripped art.

Bridge format: localStorage classicery-bridge-v1, FIFO, max 20 artifacts. Each artifact carries id, kind, source, name, timestamp, payload. The bridge module (bridgeLoad / bridgePush / bridgeRemove / bridgeClear / bridgeNewId / bridgeFormatTime) is pasted byte-identical into PS / AI / PM / DW so format compatibility is byte-equivalent.

SESSION HYGIENE

Per-cart additions are documented inside each cart folder:

NOTES_ADDITIONS_v002.txt — period-real features wired in v002.
NOTES_ADDITIONS_v003.txt — undo / redo / persistence pass (skipped on SP, FM, ALYUS, CANON for period-correct reasons; FCP and WWW intentionally too).
NOTES_ADDITIONS_v004.txt — pointer-event / touch parity pass; Suite Bridge wired into the four pipeline carts.
README.txt — what's honest vs. what's polite forgery.

Suite-level handoff dispatches live at Classicery/HANDOFF_*.txt. Newest dispatch is always the authoritative one; older are superseded. Version map for the launcher itself lives in HANDOFF_v002_features.txt and forward.

Version tags above — v2, v3, v4 — match the notes-file rounds. v1 headline features are inferred from each room's README and chrome.

CMI CART 018 / 024

A sampling room — the Fairlight CMI Series IIx (1982), where the digital sampler met the graphical sequencer in one box. Light pen on green phosphor, no keyboard shortcuts. Page R steps a hard-quantize grid (widely credited as the first graphical pattern-based software sequencer, the music-side cousin of the non-linear timeline); Page D shows the sound as the iconic 3-D waterfall of waveform segments, which the pen reshapes (drawing proper was Page 6; harmonics, Pages 4–5). Loaded with the raw materials of "Running Up That Hill" — a CELLO2 voice with the pitch-scoop, and a re-creation of Del Palmer's LinnDrum (a disclosed sandbox; the real drums were a separate machine). Built from scratch; no original code, ROMs, or samples. Genre PHOSPHOR. Open CMI →

CANON2 CART 002B / 024

The theory wing, volume two — companion to CANON 001B. Fourteen documents from 1962 to 1990 across fifteen tracks: Engelbart's Augmenting Human Intellect and the 1968 demo, Nelson on hypertext, Kay and Goldberg's Personal Dynamic Media, Shoup's SuperPaint, Bravo and Gypsy at PARC, Knuth's TeX and METAFONT, the Star paper, Shneiderman on direct manipulation, PostScript and the desktop publishing trinity, Porter and Duff on compositing (the single node where the two volumes cross), the Macintosh, NeXTSTEP and Display PostScript, Berners-Lee's Information Management. Genre PAGE — ink on warm paper. Same player as 001B, re-skinned. Open CANON2 →

CANON3 CART 003B / 024

The theory wing, volume three — The Inbetween. Fourteen tracks, twelve documents, 1878 to 1981: the single line from interpolation (fill the gap between two things you made) to generation (produce what you never made). Muybridge, Disney's principles, Burtnyk & Wein, Catmull, Kochanek & Bartels, Lasseter, Reynolds' boids, the non-linear timeline, Beier & Neely, the Illustrator blend, Sims, optical flow. It crosses Volume One on Lasseter and ends at a door — 004B, the generation volume. Genre MOTION: the room is built to move while it reads, and settles under reduce-motion. Same player as 001B/002B, rebuilt kinetic. Open CANON3 →
