Hasta La Motion!

Amsterdam-based Moniker (Roel Wouters, Luna Maurer, Jonathan Puckey) have created a Do Not Touch – a crowd-sourced music video for Light Light’s Kilo. “After 50 years of pointing and clicking, we are celebrating the nearing end of the computer cursor with a music video where all our cursors can be seen together for one last time.”

As you watch the video, your cursor data is recorded and then composited into the music video on the hour. There’s something magical about the buzzing flurry of cursors, imagining people all over the world going through the same three minute experience you’re participating in at this very moment. If you look closely you will see four different types of cursors: Mac, Windows XP, Windows 7 and Ubuntu/Linux.

Warning: This music may or may not by NSFW… depending on how many cursors have been recorded and where they ended up. At the time of posting it was almost SFW… 😉

Hat tip to the awesome Creative Applications.
