1000 Points of Light Show

1000 Points of Light Show
http://newmedia.slc.edu/~andy

This stream of images may become the largest collection of GIF files on
the World Wide Web that have exactly 1000 white pixels (this is the
"law" of production for this series). Inspired by George Bush's 1991
State of the Union message,

"What is at stake is more than one small country, it is a big idea – a
new world order…to achieve the universal aspirations of
mankind…based on shared principles and the rule of law…. The
illumination of a thousand points of light….The winds of change are
with us now"

all who visit the Light Show are invited to add to the collection of
images picturing these thousand points of light. The simple image
editing program written in Java language for the project will function
in Netscape Navigator and Internet Explorer browsers that are Java
enabled.

As with several other ongoing internet-based art projects
(http://idfx.com/andyland/Game, http://newmedia.slc.edu/draw), produced
by myself, Andy Deck, the 1000 Points of Light Show depends for its
success on the participation of "clients," or "interactants" if you
prefer, connected to the internet. So please come and check out the
show.
