Crash-
haus

Iconic, universal, like atomic elements of graphic design - the perennially popular shapes of the Bauhaus. We created a small crash-testing app to examine them colliding in slow motion.
Box2D is a physics library that has been ported to numerous platforms, most recently Javascript (by Jonas Wagner and Ando Yasushi). This enables its use in the browser without plugins. Here the shapes are rendered to an HTML canvas tag (performance may vary, try Safari or Chrome for best results).
