Chinatown.js Talk Submission

The limit does not exist: Representing Space on the Internet

When you scroll a website, how do you imagine where the obscured part of the document is coming from? Most of the websites we use on a day to day basis are bounded on the left and right edge of the screen, and not from the top or below, which uses the visual metaphor of a giant scroll of paper. How does spatial boundary setting affect the experience of space on a screen? How can we use js to manipulate perceptions of space on a screen? As webGL becomes more common, how can boundary setting and define 3D space on the internet?
