The European route E 15 is part of the United Nations international E-road network. It is a north-south "reference road", running from Inverness, Scotland south through England and France to Algeciras, Spain. Along most of its route between Paris and London, the road parallels the LGV Nord (as the French A1 autoroute) and High Speed 1 (as the English M20 motorway).
The E15 has a gap at the English Channel between Dover and Calais, France. There is a ferry link between Dover and Calais. The Eurotunnel Shuttle (using the Channel Tunnel) provides an alternative link via Folkestone.
E15 is a scriptable OpenGL interface to web content, developed at the MIT Media Lab in John Maeda's Physical Language Workshop. It presents users with a simplified way to both access and visualize web multimedia in three dimensions. Web page screen captures, images, video and text can be created within the E15 3D context.
Work on E15 began in 2007 due to frustration with the limitations of the 2D web browser interface. E15 provides an interactive Python interpreter console that enables users to decide how to format and interact with data on the web.
In contrast to other programming IDEs, an E15 session does not need to be stopped and re-compiled for visual experiments. The E15 session is always active, and data can be added, modified, or removed from the visual E15 context at the user's discretion.
E15 includes an embedded WebKit-based web browser, allowing access to web data traditionally accessible only through the use of browser extensions and plugins. This embedded browser can be used to evaluate custom JavaScript methods, allowing users to modify web page presentation in a manner similar to Greasemonkey. However, this data is passed directly back into the E15 Python environment where it can be used to create new visual representations based on data only a well-formatted DOM can provide.
