Lantern Radio

Songs written live for whoever is listening. Move the sliders and suggest a scene; the next song is made from what the room asks for.

Now playing

Where the room is

Each speck is a listener. The lantern is the station: it moves about a third of the way toward the room each song, and never more than ten points at once, so the night drifts instead of lurching.

Suggestions tonight

Similar ideas are grouped, and each listener counts once. New listeners count a little less for their first few minutes.
