Pirate’s Music Box is an interactive installation that tries to convey a message about the fall of music industry. I'll bring up pictures of music legend like Jimi Hendrix, The Beatles, etc... and divide them in pixels. And then, I'll sync those pixels in each picture with the amount of online Bittorrent users. The pixels on of the pictures will be distorted depends on the number of the user. For example, 1000 users online, Jimi Hendrix's portrait will be destroy 1000 pixels.

PMB allows users to click on the broken pixels. The user can use the mouse to click on broken pixel to hi-light them. Each hi-lighted pixel works like a pin in a music box. When the play head reaches a pin, the play head sounds from PMB sound library. Each pin or pixel that is broken will contain the an IP address of an online user. The last two digits of each IP address will decide which sound should be played.
