User interface from Tron Legacy boardroom scene recreated in HTML

Rob Beschizza 6:53 am Mon Aug 7, 2017

You may now enjoy the Tron Legacy Encom user interface in HTML. The original, as depicted in the movie, was designed by Bradley Munkowitz; the recreation defaults to github feeds, but has all sorts of possibilities to fool around with, such as Wikipedia (pictured) and the weather.

Hello User. This is a reproduction of the graphics in the boardroom scene in Tron: Legacy. If you have not seen that movie,
check out this background material on the making of that scene before proceeding.

To make this a bit more fun, the boardroom is configured to visualize live updates from Github and Wikipedia,
with more streams to come. Click on a stream in the window to the right to continue.

The boardroom visualization requires the use of WebGL
and Event Source. The test below indicates the availability of these features
on your system.

This was created by @arscan as a learning exercise. It is not affiliated with
Disney, Tron: Legacy, Encom, Wikipedia or Github in any way. The source is available on Github.

The typeface is Inconsolata, of course.
