Slopfest No. 85: Ten Hours of Nyan Cat
A pixel cat with a Pop-Tart body flew across the internet on a rainbow. We played it until sunrise.
About
The festival's only act was a few seconds of a flying pixel cat, looped on every screen for ten hours. The committee called this a residency. Guests who left for the bathroom came back to find it exactly where they left it. At 6 a.m. somebody switched it off, and the silence caused a small panic.
31,800 people came last year. 10 hours, 10,000 loops, 0 variations.
