Looking for a creative coder to help shape a new expressive medium

I’m building a new web-based communication medium where ideas and emotions unfold through timeline-based messages instead of static posts.

The format combines images, voice, atmosphere, movement, and visual effects, so a message can develop gradually over time instead of being compressed into one quick statement.

I already have an early working prototype. It uses JavaScript, CSS, browser-based animation, and a structured timeline system for creating and playing these messages.

I’m looking for a creative coder or front-end developer who enjoys visual, interactive experiments and might want to explore this direction with me.

To keep it simple and grounded, I’d like to begin with a paid 4-meeting trial collaboration.

The goal of the trial would be to review the prototype, discuss the creative and technical direction, identify what would make the editor more intuitive, explore the expressive effects system, and see whether the working rhythm feels right.

This is not a full-time job offer at this stage. It is a paid exploration phase. We can agree on a simple fixed amount for four focused meetings, with no expectation of unpaid work between them unless we both decide otherwise.

You do not need to have a traditional professional background. What matters more is that you have built things, enjoy visual/interactive experiments, and are comfortable enough with JavaScript, CSS, or browser-based creative work to explore the prototype seriously.

If this resonates with you, I’d be happy to share the prototype and talk.
