The website begins by playing a song. Immediately, you notice at least a hundred additional cursors on the screen. The site tells you to follow their instructions and that they're recording your cursor movements. You don't realize it immediately, but you're becoming a part of their generative art piece.
The band, Light Light, performs the song Kilo in the background for this artistic music video. As the band plays along, you continue to perform these simple tasks with your mouse. These include answering questions about gender, sexual preference, location, and vacation locations. They also rely on the users to create various shapes around the people within the music video.
This combination of music and visualization creates an astonishingly artistic piece of generative art experience for the user. As well as changing based on the input of hundred of other people, the art piece allows the user to interact with it on a personal level, while still remaining completely anonymous.
