Touch Test

• Testing the animation and sound controls via HDMI touchscreen
• Sliding finger left/right plays sound and animation backward/forward
• The further from the initial touch point, the faster the playback; similar to scrubbing an LP from 0-72+ rpm
• The "sweet-spot" must be found for the sound and animation play back at the recorded 32 RPM/24 FPS

Video Demo

• May skip and stutter a bit if slow to stream
• Forgive the poor sound quality (shot from mobile phone)
• The scan lines you see on the HDMI are an intentionally programmed video noise effect
