Pretty cool. Had a tough time getting it to work in Chrome with "right-click-to-play-flash", but finally got it running by whitelisting your domain. Just clicking the "run all…

Live 4K streams with local ambient audio
From 2 comments
Nice project! Was actually hoping for something a little different; I've thought about having 4k streams with (local) ambient audio from around the world for use as virtual…
e12e on HNThat's nice, but not what I had in mind. I was thinking a live 4k video stream with local audio -- so an "actual" digital window. Slideshows and stills are nice -- but they serve…
