How to View the Experiments on Web Graphic Experiments

Updated

Open experiments.p5aholic.me in a desktop browser and wait for the loading screen to finish. The site explicitly states it is not viewable on mobile devices, so a phone or tablet browser won't get you the intended experience. Once loaded, you'll see a numbered collection of titled graphic experiments by Keita Yamada, which you can browse in order or jump into by name.

Before You Start

  • Use a desktop or laptop browser. The site's own notice reads: "This site is not viewable on mobile devices. Please use your desktop browser." This is a hard requirement, not a suggestion.
  • Expect a loading phase. A "LOADING" indicator appears before the collection renders. Give it a moment rather than assuming the page is broken.
  • No account or payment step is mentioned in the site materials, so nothing indicates a login wall or pricing tier. Treat that as "not stated," not as a guarantee of open access.

Step-by-Step

  1. Open the URL experiments.p5aholic.me in a desktop browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge — the site doesn't specify a preferred one).
  2. Wait for the loading screen to clear. The collection appears only after loading completes.
  3. Read the intro line. The page identifies itself as "A collection of web graphic experiments by keita yamada."
  4. Browse the numbered list. Each experiment has a title and a number, running from 01 upward. The most recent entries appear at the top of the list.
  5. Select an experiment by its title to view that piece.
  6. Check "More info about this project" if you want background on the project as a whole.

What You'll See in the List

The experiments are presented as a reverse-numbered catalog. Based on the page content, the current top of the list looks like this:

Number Title
34 Noise Addict
33 Euphoria
32 EXIT
31 Madness
30 Irony
29 Hypothesis
28 Zero To One
27 Corpses
26 Forget Everything ...
25 Fake

The list continues down through earlier works such as Breaking The Habit (23), Hello Friend (22), Harmony (21), and further back to BEGINNING (01). Titles are duplicated in the markup (e.g., "Noise Addict Noise Addict"), which is a display artifact — treat each as a single entry.

Verifying It Worked

You've loaded the site correctly when:

  • The loading indicator is gone.
  • You can see the heading crediting Keita Yamada.
  • The numbered list of titled experiments is visible and selectable.

If you see only the loading state or a blank area, the most likely cause is a mobile browser or a very narrow window. Switch to a desktop browser and reload.

Common Snags

  • Opening it on a phone. The site will not render as intended. This is the single most common blocker, and the site warns about it directly.
  • Leaving before loading finishes. The collection is gated behind the loading screen; a slow connection means a longer wait, not a missing page.
  • Looking for a menu or search. The page presents a flat numbered list rather than navigation categories. Scroll the list to find a specific title.
  • Expecting written documentation per piece. The only project-level info link mentioned is "More info about this project"; individual experiments are visual works, not articles.

A Practical Browsing Approach

If you want a quick tour rather than a full pass, start at the top (currently Noise Addict, 34) and work downward a few entries — the newest experiments sit first. If you're researching the series' range, jump to BEGINNING (01) and compare it with a recent piece to see how the work has evolved. For context on authorship and the project's purpose, the "More info about this project" link is the place to go before diving into individual experiments.
