The Human Brain Cloud, a massive multiplayer word association game

Brain Cloud

Originally designed as a learning experience from a designer who wanted to learn Flash and JavaScript, The Human Brain Cloud is a brilliant stroke of simplistic game design and high-brow fun for those of us who still remember Scrabble nights with fondness. The ‘game’ starts out with a player typing in the first word that comes to their mind, allowing other ‘players’ to then begin associating other words with the original subject, creating a lovely (and large) mind map of words and bubbles. For instance, “pizza” might be associated with “cheese”, “Italy” or even “yummy” by other players, creating a sometimes humorous look into the inner workings of word association on the human psyche. Some interesting statistics have also popped up, as of this post, The Human Brain Cloud consists of 209644 unique words, 1934531 connections and 171984 humans , not bad for an experiment from a first time Flash scripter.

    Hi there,I am a professional drummer and I’ve made a dumb principle that permits me to take a fifteen min break after one hour of exercising. So, each and every break I’ve to do something entirely different, so usually I go to Search engines and look for the suggested last hour weblog. It can be enjoyable to do some thing different and to learn about new points each and every day. By the way, now I am practicing. HandelHaydn. Your website is great, I wish I could stay for a longer time, but I must get back to play… Next time I’ll come to visit again.
