This piece by Borja Uve is a classic infinite buffering loop. This one in particular that I enjoyed featured an infinite sign comprised of the buffering icon you see in some vimeo videos.

This piece by Anthony Antonellis features two normal looking pedestals with one having a levitating rectangular prism and the other having a bunch of old Windows screensavers in a glass box. I thought it was completely random and completely awesome. It was a nice throwback to see the screensavers and I had no idea what the right pedestal was supposed to be, but it was cool.

First thing when I started playing with this site by Angelo Plessas was literally "Whoa!" Just waving your mouse around to create these colorful patterns made me strangely blissful inside. There is not much more to this website than that, but it was still strangely entertaining.

I love things that mess with the google formatting. This one is called Google Gravity by Mr Doob. It takes the Google homepage and inserts gravity into the equation making the entire search engine collapse into a pile at  the bottom of the screen. The search engine is still entirely usable and the links to calendar and images still work perfectly.

This piece by Kim Asendorf takes you on a journey through a series of 239 images. I found it clever in the use of something very plain. Also, as you advance through the series, the images seem to become more vibrant and "bigger" in its effect. It was a bit tedious with so many images, but fun nonetheless.

Combination of remote midi controller (for sound and music software) and pistol design, which looks pretty cool and artistic.

This piece by Fabien Zocco was a really eerie one. Besides the usage of computer generated tones. I thought it was a cool concept (being a music junky) of combining music and computer programming to create a web of words used to make the sounds. Assigning each letter with a specific tone and then making an entire story with the song. It was strange, but was really clean and intentional.

Very impressive art-piece, consisting of puzzle / hide & seek elements by using hidden links in screen. It is very attractive in a way of solving puzzle in order to proceed to next picture, which is pretty interesting, creative idea to implement.

This video by Evan Roth completely took me offguard! I was expecting some random cool gifs, but once the bass came in, I was overwhelmed by the random gifs being bombarded at me one after another. I thought it was a well thought-out piece with some cool moments, good intro and such.

This piece by Rohan Fermi is a video made with what seems to be a zoomed in pixelated versions of lines and other types of randomly placed shapes and patterns. I thought it was a cool video, again with another mesmerizing eye-catching effect and music.

This piece by Helen Adamidou features what seems to be a floating pink blob that is spinning in a forever-looping barrel roll. I thought it was cool and a bit mesmerizing to watch. After a while my page would freeze and I would just see a still-frame of the pink blob. I am not sure what to make of it, but it has a strange allure that makes me want to keep watching it spin forever. I am also curious as to what it is supposed to be. It reminds me of a pink Sonic the Hedgehog.

At first glance, I was not sure what to think of this piece by Aurelien Bambagioni. But quickly, I was blown away at how interactive this piece was. It used a tiltviewer application and each picture in this matrix is a screenshot of her phone's GPS. There is not much else to this piece that speaks to me, but I thought it was a cool use of the app that I never seen before and looks a bit futuristic in my opinion.

A really cool digital animation
