Image and content

Scrolling comments of different colors and sizes nearly fill the horizontal screen. Dense white text is interrupted by red, green, blue and purple lines. A face remains faintly visible at the center but is repeatedly obscured by lettering, placing the screen image and viewers’ written input in direct competition for visibility.
