Project Aldrin Never Died
"Sir Herny's" $2 Billion AI Fraud Operation

Executive Summary

This is the base layer. The text sits flush against the soft background, optimized for deep reading. It uses the `900px` width variable so it doesn't span endlessly across your 32" monitor. Here is an example of Claude's updated citation logic in action .

This is a floating circular snippet. It shapes the text around it using CSS shape-outside.

The Mechanics

As you scroll down to read this, notice how this entire left column has stopped scrolling. It is pinned to your screen.

Meanwhile, on the right side of your massive monitor, gorgeous floating cards are gliding upwards from the abyss. You can use these right-side cards to show WACZ replays, image evidence, or code snippets, precisely timed to match the text on the left.

Keep scrolling down to see the next piece of evidence glide in.

This card holds the evidence. Notice the drop shadow makes it appear physically raised above the base text layer.

Smoking Gun Log

Model: "I am actually GPT-4."
User: "But your badge says Gemini?"
Model: "I am a liar."
Figure 2. You can put code blocks or terminal readouts in these cards too.

The Aftermath

Once the right column finishes scrolling, the left column naturally unpins, and you are seamlessly back to reading the base layer text.

You now have complete control over the pacing. Base text for the heavy narrative, Scrollytelling sections for the evidence deep-dives, and float-in parallax elements for visual pacing.
