Text Reveal

eight ways to reveal the same three lines, from one fade to a cloud of dots that settles into the type. step through them with the chevrons under the copy, and press the name to replay it.

key insight: every pattern is a pure function of one clock, so a pattern is the same at any instant however it got there, and the noise in decode is a hash of the frame rather than a random roll.

wipe is the reference: a rectangle squeezes off each line and the line slides in 60% into its move. weight holds every glyph at its resting width, so a swell past black spills over its neighbours instead of shoving the line.
