Cross-posted from the Official Google Blog This week, in partnership with the Tate Modern in London, we released an online art experiment called This Exquisite Forest , which lets you collaborate with others to create animations and stories using a web-based drawing tool. Bill Woodrow , Dryden Goodwin , Julian Opie , Mark Titchner , Miroslaw Balka , Olafur Eliasson and Raqib Shaw , have created short “seed” animations. From these seeds, anyone can add new animations that extend the story or branch it in a new direction. Or you can start a tree of your own with some friends. As more sequences are added, the animations grow into trees, creating a potentially infinite number of possible endings to each animation.This Exquisite Forest uses several of Google Chrome’s advanced HTML5 and JavaScript features to produce a unique content creation and exploration experience. For example, the Web Audio API makes it possible for contributors to generate music to accompany their submissions. The project also runs on Google App Engine and Google Cloud Storage .ExquisiteForest.com and contribute your own animation to help the forest grow.Posted by Aaron Koblin, Google Creative Lab, Data Arts Team
