GLITCH RETRO
Windows XP Out of Control
Is it a glitch in time or space? Windows XP, released around the year 2000, not only bears the collective memory of our generation, but has also set the pedestal for the forthcoming decades of technological boom. This simulation takes us back to the exciting moments of the popularization of Windows XP. The excitement and frustrations in the user’s first experience of the computer become visualized as a tangible collision. In this accidental encounter, the user’s attention is captured by the Windows’ window. When he tries to touch the taskbar window, the window becomes sticky and lagging and starts multiplying out of control. The frames soon engulf the real-time surroundings.
