Electric Sheep

Electric Sheep is a collaborative digital art project and screensaver that uses distributed computing to generate evolving animated images called "sheep." It combines user-submitted patterns and artificial evolution, with participants worldwide contributing their computer's processing power to render the animations. The system allows users to vote on their favorite images, influencing the artwork's development over time. Essentially, it's a large-scale, community-driven art creation that blends technology, collective creativity, and randomness, resulting in mesmerizing, constantly changing visuals displayed on participants' screens.
