Dreamlines, by Leonardo Solaas, is a spiffy Javascript application that asks you for a keyword - then creates an ephemeral, dream-like image based on your word. I love the textures that it creates from the images that it finds.
Who is dreaming? The user, or the Internet itself? In a certain way, both. The program generates a personal moving picture, unique, unpredictable, and forever gone when it is finished, just like dreams. But that dream is made out of pieces taken from the subconscious of the whole net, gathered by some words of the user and the obscure logic of searching algorithms.
