Interaction

A lonlely little blue box appears, moving in a grey room. Interact with it.

• When it hits a wall it changes direction and shrinks.
• If you grab it and drag it around, diffrently colored boxes trail out going the opposite of the direction you drag.
• The colors are from a short palette of about 5 colors and they cycle.
• If you roll your mouse-wheel all the boxes scale up or down in size depending on the direction you scroll it. (Mac users use the two-finger downswipe to scale up and two-finger upswipe to scale down)
• When the boxes are all tiny, its hard to grab them, so you might scale them all up.
• Catch one and hold on to it. Allow the others to decay in size a bit by bouncing off the walls. Then drag around to emit some, let them decay, etc.
• Scale them up until they all look like a jigging mass of Jellotm. Then scroll farther, most wrap around and become small, but some stay large. Let them decay.
