The Dutch design studio Moniker wants you to help animate its new music video. Featuring the music of Light Light, the project, called “Do Not Touch,” records the movement of users’ pointers as they collectively “behave” in response to onscreen images and instructions. At last view, 41,446 pointers (and counting) have participated in the video. The experience is surprisingly meditative, despite the antics of anarchist pointers who refuse to follow instructions. The highlight is simultaneously watching and participating as thousands of arrows form a smiley face.
