my ip galaxy with threejs

I have an AWS IP address and AWS logs who visits.

I have python to turn the logs into a big list of latitudes, longitudes, and timestamps.

Then I thought… Three.js!

This visualization attempts to show all the visitors to my IP address on 2025-03-31.

It is time-accurate, but sped up by 720x. So instead of taking a day to watch, it should take about two minutes.

I found making 2,000 paper airplanes (etc.) was enough. If you block the screen or stop the animation while the clock continues, it may try to plot over 2,000 meshes and the animation will stop ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Hope you enjoy!
