Career on YouTube[edit]

jacknjellify and Battle for Dream Island[edit]

The Battle For Dream Island logo used for the first season.

On February 4, 2008, the channel Jacknjellify was created.[1] Today, it houses the animated web series[2] Battle for Dream Island (often shortened to BFDI), which premiered on January 1st, 2010.[3][importance?] Co-created and produced (first three seasons) by both twins, the show features twenty characters competing for an island[4] in an environment reminiscent of reality TV.[citation needed]

There are a total of 25 episodes in the first season, which encompasses the first elimination game and concludes with a “last-man-standing” finale. Several seasons have been produced to continue the show.[citation needed]

BFDI's first book, Battle for Dream Island: Official Character Guide, was published on August 29, 2019, by Scholastic.[5] In 2016, BFDI’s Yoylecake was one of 4 foods that made it into the New York Comic Con during the Battle of the Fantasy Foods.[6] In 2021, BFDI won the independent Cartoon Crave Awards.[7][importance?]

Abacaba[edit]

Created on June 21, 2014,[8] Abacaba is a channel for presenting data visualizations in timeline form. In February 2020, Abacaba was featured on a Snopes article on COVID-19.[9]

htwins.net (stylised as HTWINS.NET) is an online web portal hosting games and videos.[4] The site hosts the flash game Scale of the Universe 2 which shows a range of objects from 10−35 to 1027.[lower-alpha 1] "htwins" is most likely a play on the two twin brothers who created the site having a last name that ends with "H".

Before htwins.net, Cary Huang started using Flash when he was ten years old.[13]

The site was created in 2008, while the creators Cary and Michael Huang attended Camino Pablo Elementary.[14] The site was originally only text links, before adopting inline linking on June 30, 2014.[15] A web series called Battle for Dream Island was hosted to the site through a YouTube link starting February 12, 2010, a month after the first episode's release.[16] The show, which was created by Cary and Michael, now has over 355,500,000 views.

Scale of the Universe[edit]

Scale of the Universe is an educational interactive webpage created in 2010 that compares the sizes of the smallest and largest objects in the universe and displays information about those objects.[17][18][19]

The first version of Scale of the Universe was released in 2010 using various images and information from the web, after their seventh grade science teacher showed them size comparison on cells.[13] However, Cary Huang thought that the graphics and information needed work.[20] Scale of the Universe 2 was released in 2012, when Cary and Michael were in Campolindo High School.[21][22][23] The game lets the player explore from a subatomic level to galaxies and the wider universe.[24] The full scale you can explore is from the size of one yoctometer to 93,400,000,000 light years.[25] The game was featured on NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day[26] and is on display at the Perot Museum of Nature and Science in the Expanding Universe Hall.[27]

In September 2020, Kurzgesagt released "Universe In a Nutshell", a mobile app inspired by Scale of the Universe 2.[28][29]

10003 Caryhuang minor planet[edit]

In June 2021, the IAU changed a minor planet's notation to Caryhuang, naming it after Cary Huang.[30]

Personal life[edit]

Cary Huang graduated from Stanford University in 2020[31] with a bachelor degree in computer science.[32]

Notes[edit]

  1. 100 is 1 meter in the game: so 1027 (the biggest level you can explore) is 27 orders of magnitude up from 1 meter, and 10−35 (the smallest level you can explore) is 35 orders of magnitude down from 1 meter.
