What what2watch is

what2watch is an answer to the scrolling problem: instead of a vertical list of ten posters at a time, it renders the whole catalogue as a single living wall. Tens of thousands of movies and shows are packed into one screen as a force-directed voronoi mosaic of poster tiles that you can wander around, zoom into and pull apart.

The wall is not a static image. It runs on the GPU, streams posters live from public film APIs, and rebuilds itself in place when you change what you are looking for — filter by mood, by type or by genre and the mosaic re-packs around the new selection rather than reloading a new page of results.

For the times when you genuinely do not want to choose, there is a surprise-me jump, a title search, and a hotkey that throws you at a random pick.

How it works

GPU voronoi wall

The catalogue is packed into one screen as a force-directed voronoi mosaic, with posters streamed live from public film APIs.

Mood, type and genre filters

Changing a filter rebuilds the wall in place instead of loading a new page of results.

Surprise me

Title search, surprise-me jumps and a hotkey for a random pick, for when browsing is not the point.

Highlights
