Self-netwoking Screen Savers
Description
A computer lab full of idle networked PCs collaborate to create and "perform"
three acts, as they sit, powered-up, waiting to be used by people.
Act I: Bystander's speech, and ambient music transform into smoothly changing hues; in complete unison across all screens.
Act II: Music intensifies, each screen becomes a different bar on a networked graphic equalizer, as the colored hues moves up and down the screen to indicate each different frequency amplitude.
Act III: Music softens, and ambient sounds and speech become a changing hue, which now sweeps across all monitors one-by-one leaving a colorful persistent pattern, on each screen. "Won't somebody come use us?"
