For INPUT, we developed a distinctive
audio-visual format that is based on the video clip. Here, the
visual interpretation of the music is first of all an optical
outline. The various pieces of music required different
sequences of images and visual actions and are based on
rollovers. Depending on the composition, different parameters
of content and form come to the fore. Music and interactive
animation are synchronised.

Remember Jeff, 02:58 min (cut-out 00:60
min)
The webclip named by Michael Herfert after
a piece of music of the same name, was our first attempt. The
music is composed in a polyrhythmic pulsation ratio of 7 : 4
and distinguishes itself by a quick succession of pulsating
beats.
A separate interactive model was
constructed for “Remember Jeff”. The action is not
interfered with when the cursor is outside the window. Only the
back and forth movement of the cursor in the window on a
(mostly) blue colored object triggers the interaction. This
makes a “yes” into a “no” and the other
way around, an “X” becomes a heart etc. The visual
events thus lead, through the change of the content level, also
to a shift in the basic statement.
