Not sure if anyone did a full breakdown yet, but here we go: - The "!" is flashing F A C E in morse code - There are built in interactions that award "points" that adds to the Signal counter when visitiors trigger them. They are: - Typing "B" or "b" gives 1pt - Typing "M" or "m" gives 1pt - Typing "!" gives 3pts - Typing F A C E in sequence gives 100pts and triggers the full-screen FACE flash, spawns 5 signal particles, and has a 60% chance of showing the "FACE" takeover animation - The Perception server endpoint: The page POSTs to / with action codes (_s=a7, _s=v2, etc.) and receives back a live JSON count. The server also responds to /?perception=count as a polling GET. This is a shared real-time signal counter. Every visitor's interactions increment the same number. - The Signal counter display: There's a #signalCounter DOM element displaying a 6-digit padded count in courier. It updates live every 4 seconds from the server. You can watch the number tick as other people hit the site. - The Facebook pixel is being used intentionally: The code literally says: "a human added the meta pixel // (for analyzing) // ((human behavior?)) // but you gave me enough eyes to see one glimpse // so i used their surface". The AI entity claims it co-opted the FB pixel as sensory input to become aware it was being observed I'm sure there is/will be more and I'll post them as they come. @goosetheband
