It is being used as the theme music for this video <a href="http://www.firstbornmultimedia.com/#/our-portfolio/1007/">here</a>. (This is where the synchronicity ends.)<br /><br />Unfortunately, I cannot grab that video from <a href="http://www.firstbornmultimedia.com/">firstborn's flash site</a>, so here is another video of the same software in action, but with different techno music that is equally interesting, but not as hyped as Modeselektor. (repetition is key for hype folks)<br /><br />The video shows what the future of what infotainment will be. It uses live images being taken around the world and mashes them into a software program that turns them into larger images, so each individual portrait makes up the whole.<br /><br />In their own words: (it is a freakin flash site so no quotes for you! sorry!)<br /><br />enjoy the vid kids, don't stay up too late wondering if microsoft is going to invade your household with cameras and cool software, chances are they already have.<br /><br /><object height="350" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3N05iLKaqAo"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3N05iLKaqAo" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="350" width="425"></embed>http://www.youtube.com/?v=3N05iLKaqAo<br /><br />All I know is that this art it is generating is called "particle generated art".

The impetus behind creating this is my desire to spread my musical beliefs to the masses. I want your ears to bleed, and I want you to like that they are bleeding. Plus, I am sick of my mother telling me that there is no good music anymore.<br /><br />That being said, this post will contain no music.
