Description

Time-Lapse Homepage is a video the artist made sequentially, frame-by-frame, by editing the HTML on his homepage and taking a screenshot after each change. The soundtrack was created by compiling brief clips of audio recorded from the MIDI files playing when each screenshot was taken.

Short video made with HTML. The minute-long video was made sequentially, frame-by-frame from beautifully hand crafted HTML and images found on the web, taking a screenshot after each change. The sound comes from MIDI files (primarily U2, Moby, and Madonna) placed on the page. At the time of each screenshot, a brief clip of audio was recorded from the MIDI files currently playing on the page, and then strung together into a chart-topping soundtrack.
