Electric Legends

As crazy as it may sound, we the Community have published 100,000 circuits over the years. This is an absolutely mind blowing achievement and I want to thank you all. Woohoo!

This calls for celebration, so we have created a project called Electric Legends that showcases all your public circuits in one place for everyone to see. Best viewed on a large screen:

https://everycircuit.com/gallery

It was quite a challenge to present a huge amount of data in an organized and pleasing way. The project brings together generative art, huge resolutions, simulation tech, and also NFT if you are into that sort of thing. I will share more technical details if enough people follow me on Twitter:

Thank you again everyone! Your work really fulfills the vision for the name of this app, EveryCircuit.

What proportion of the community’s circuits have been included in the gallery? Are any included more than once?

Great questions. There are no repeating circuits in any of the individual portraits.

Across the portraits, there is some repetition of the brightest circuits, because there are fewer of them published.

About 80% of the 100,000 circuits made it into the first 12 portraits, because some of the darker circuits did not make it.

For some reason, as of writing this, this circuit only shows there being 2 comments (in the bookmarks/comments/views/time display) despite there very obviously being 4 comments here.

@Igor. Impressive presentation. A fitting tribute to creativity on many levels.

Specking of glitches @Igor, all of the MOSFET libraries that I had bookmarked have vanished. What happened there?

Who posted them? You can check their profile to see if the circuits are still there. They may have made them private or deleted them.

Kiani. Looks like all of his circuits are gone

@kiani ‘left’ EC but his circuits remained. He reappeared a few weeks ago but now seems to have left and deleted (or made private) all his circuits.

@igor this circuit demonstrates a bug that needs to be fixed: http://everycircuit.com/circuit/6077968788750336 It should be a pretty trivial fix I think. Also another trivial bug is that the 555 timer output pin resistance is -15Ω instead of 15Ω, so maybe fix that too while you’re at it. Other than those two easy to fix bugs, I don’t have any other bugs to report at the moment, although an adjustable transformer winding resistance would be nice.

@igor maybe you could set up some formal location to report bugs and/or request features? It’s certainly nicer than sending an email and having no idea if it’s even been received. Some options that come to mind are: an EC circuit where the comment section is for requests/reports, a whole new section of EveryCircuit for requesting/reporting, a discord channel, a new section to the EC website, or something on another website. Something with chatting ability would be ideal, e.g. github issues. This makes it so we can know what’s been seen and what is/isn’t going to be worked on, unlike emails where we have to simply hope it’s been received and payed attention to. Maybe you could even make a blank github repo where people can make bug reports and feature requests for EveryCircuit.

Will look into that. Thank you.

It isn’t? It works fine on my iPad. Or at least it did when I last checked. It’s possible something changed since then.

Yeah, it still works on my iPad. What operating system version are you using? I’m using iPadOS 15.1.
