INTERACTIVE BEAT MACHINE
Robyn's second interactive music video for the track We Dance to the Beat.
A first of its kind Interactive experience, the Interactive Beat Machine invites Robyn's fans to interact with both visuals and sounds simultaneously and in sync to the music, to create their own original 'beats'.
Users can search through the massive grid of 100+ video/sound clips and choose their own group of sounds and sights. The sounds are the parts of Robyn's song "We Dance to the Beat". The visuals are meant to feel both graphic and colorful, connected to the beat and random, as if pulled ad hoc from the internet itself. Interacting with the clips manipulates the images and the sounds, in perfect sync with the beat. The interactions are stored and repeated, in real-time, letting the user build patterns and rhythms.

They can then publish their creation to an even larger, ever-evolving stream of unique user-created beats. It is a real-time/interactive/music/video remix beat machine.
