The concepts of an interactive whiteout is interesting. The effect it creates is one of constant reduction—everything seems to be propelled towards to a small, collapsed point.

This was an easy favorite for me. The simple mechanic of whiting-out gave such depth to the piece, used the interactive medium well, and drove me to keep wanting more to take away even as fewer and fewer words appeared.

There was a moment in reading it that what was going on clicked, and I was utterly hooked from that point on.

The impressionistic writing lent itself to removing words while still keeping the story. And the depth of understanding of the song used was a refreshing take that extended the song rather than simply borrowed from it.

The only issues I had were with CSS overflows - on a smaller window, I had to zoom out to catch everything.
