Inkbase is another Programmable Ink research project done at Ink&Switch ↗, together with James Lindenbaum and Joshua Horowitz ↗ during summer and autumn of 2020.

With Inkbase we explored what would it mean to have a hand-drawn ink combined with spreadsheet-like reactivity, all in end-user programmable form.

To learn more about the research, head over here for a long write-up ↗ covering everything from philosophy behind hand-drawn marks, to intricacies of the programming model.

Inkbase was presented during my 2022 Strange Loop talk ↗, and at the 2021 LIVE conference ↗.
