Our note
A 3-minute visualization of Japan's 2026 heat wave, built from climate data in a hand-drawn pencil style with chromatic aberration; this scene charts Tokyo's warm spring and wet June beside a teru-teru-bōzu charm drawing.

I'm so blown away y'all. You should stop whatever you're doing and ask Opus 5.5 to make you a visualization. I was telling @Bostonasian about the new models, and decided to try making one about Japan's hot summer. I asked it to also have audio. It's so good! Prompt below 🤯
The prompt
Style-and-data briefAll right, this is an empty repo. Make me a 3-minute animated visualization using JavaScript, or you can do it in TypeScript if you want, about Japan's hot weather in 2026. Pull some online data to see why it was hot and how it compares to other years. I really want the animation to be visually appealing. I wanted to use a hand-drawn pencil style with a little bit of tasteful chromatic aberration. And maybe a bit of a pastiche look but it's supposed to look really, really cool. Also, use a JavaScript synthesizer to make a melody for this visualization that goes along with the theme.
