The visualisation and simulation platform focused on what matters to you.
Geppetto is a web-based visualisation and simulation platform to build neuroscience software applications. Reuse best practices, best compomnents, best design. Don't reinvent the wheel.
Engineered together with scientists, Geppetto lets you integrate different data and models. A modular architecture allows the platform to easily support different standard formats for both experimental and computational data.
Geppetto is entirely open source and engineers, scientists and developers from different research groups are contributing to its development by adding functionality to visualize and simulate new data and models.
Some of the features responsible for giving you an amazing experience.
Regular releases of Geppetto make sure components keep being updated and tested.
Help us identify what matters to you and what you would want to see built in Geppetto. Do so by logging an enhancement request on GitHub or dropping us an .
Help us build the next generation simulation platform!
Geppetto is entirely open source and is being built by a growing community of talented engineers and scientists. Geppetto uses different languages to achieve different goals. Its core and back-end are built in Java to provide a solid and performant infrastructure. The front-end is built using the latest HTML5 and Javascript. Geppetto is being developed using the Eclipse platform and uses technologies like OSGi, Spring Framework, and Maven. Geppetto's model abstraction is defined using ecore and all the model code is generated using EMF. Geppetto's front-end is written using THREE.js, React and Backbone. The back-end and the front-end communicate by exchanging JSON messages through WebSocket. Geppetto runs on the Eclipse Virgo WebServer and can be deployed on different infrastructures including cloud-based ones like Amazon EC2. Anything sound familiar?
Geppetto is multi-platform and works on Linux, Mac OSX and Windows, so no matter on what platform you develop there is a way for you to run it and add fantastic contributions.
Show me the code!
Right! Geppetto is hosted on GitHub, every module has its own repository to provide flexible ways of branching individual components. For every module we have at least two branches, development and master. The development branch gets merged into master each monthly release. If you want to contribute you can either go straight to the code or reach out to us dropping an , we will show you around and help you contribute in your favorite way!

Unlike Hollywood’s global dominance or K-pop’s strategic soft power, Japan’s strength lies in its diversity, its deep connection to domestic subcultures, and a unique blend of ancient tradition and futuristic innovation. From the serene stage of Noh theater to the high-energy spectacle of a virtual YouTuber concert, the industry is a complex ecosystem driven by otaku (passionate fan) culture, meticulous craftsmanship, and a distinct approach to intellectual property.
In the realm of adult content, especially when it comes to content from Japan, it's essential to understand the concepts of censored and uncensored materials. Censored adult content often adheres to local laws and regulations, which may involve the use of mosaic or other forms of blurring to obscure explicit details. On the other hand, uncensored content provides a more explicit view, often sought after by certain audiences.
1. Omotenashi (Selfless Hospitality) This concept of anticipating needs without being asked permeates entertainment. Concert staff bow as fans exit; DVD extras include "making of" features that are meditative, not sensationalist. The experience is curated to feel safe, orderly, and generous.

2. Uchi-Soto (Inside vs. Outside) This in-group/out-group distinction shapes fan culture. Otaku form powerful uchi communities around a franchise (e.g., Touken Ranbu, Love Live!). Outsiders may find these communities insular, but inside, there are strict hierarchies and gift economies (sharing fan art, trading merch). Celebrity scandals often revolve not just around the act, but around betraying the uchi trust (e.g., an idol secretly dating).
3. Mono no Aware (The Pathos of Things) A gentle sadness for the transient nature of life. This aesthetic defines much of Japanese storytelling: the cherry blossom fall, the retiring samurai, the anime that ends bittersweetly. Even in entertainment, impermanence is celebrated—idols "graduate" from groups, and seasonal limited-edition snacks or show events create a constant sense of urgency and nostalgia.

4. Kawaii & Subculture Ascendancy Kawaii (cuteness) is a cultural force, not just a style. It softens authority and disarms aggression, seen in mascot characters (yuru-kyara like Kumamon) and police station posters. More broadly, Japan does not stigmatize subcultures; rather, it compartmentalizes them. A corporate salaryman by day can be a hardcore otaku by night, and there are magazines, cafes, and TV segments dedicated to every niche: from trainspotting to visual kei rock fashion.
5. The "Tatemae vs. Honne" Performance Tatemae (public facade) and honne (true feeling) are crucial. Entertainment often provides a sanctioned space for honne. Talk shows are scripted for chaos, but that chaos allows guests to vent real frustrations. Variety show pranks are cruel in tatemae (for laughs) but are carefully managed to ensure no real honne injury. The audience learns to read between the lines—a skill essential for enjoying Japanese media. Understanding Censored vs
1. Music: The J-Pop & Idol System Post-1990s, J-Pop evolved from city pop and kayōkyoku into a genreless industry where idols reign supreme.
2. Film & Television: The Variety Show & The Blockbuster
3. Anime & Manga: The Global Soft Power This is Japan’s most visible cultural export.
4. Gaming & Arcade Culture Japan is a gaming superpower. From Nintendo’s family-friendly IP (Mario, Zelda) to Sony’s cinematic masterpieces and Capcom’s fighting games, the influence is total. However, the uniquely Japanese element is the game center (arcade). Here, purikura (photo sticker booths), ufo catchers (claw machines), and rhythm games (e.g., Taiko no Tatsujin) remain social hubs, resistant to the home-console-only model of the West.
