[PD] The Party at the Center of the Universe

[Pall Thayer]

It ended up on the pd-list because I posted an announcement. All the  
source-material for the project can be downloaded and it contains a  
few PD files.

I'm not debating who said what when. The project is really just an  
abstract audio/visual mapping of people on wireless networks.  
Theories of spacetime sparked the concept and were used to guide some  
of the creative aspects of it but they really don't matter in the  
end. It's just an aesthetic experience. It's not going to make the  
viewer any more enlightened about spacetime.
