I discovered this page like back in 2015 and I am grateful to find it on hackernews again, I forgot even its name in the meantime.

There's a (not so visible) info button top right. It says:

    cachemonet is an exploration into the serendipitous collisions that
    occur between two randomly generated arrays. the arrays contain a mix
    of custom and found .gifs sourced from tumblr and are set to
    music. the output is autonomous, generative, art made possible through
    curation & code.

You can even turn on sound...

I'm so delighted you guys are discovering this for the first time. It's been around for a long time. I think I first saw it in 2011.

Biggest surprise here is that this website is still around. I was browsing it 20 years ago

Cool stuff, but why is there an entire loading screen and intro animation, then a play button, when it could just link to a gif?

Made me lose interest in browsing real quick

		I genuinely can't tell if this is satire or not.

An all-time classic, glad to see it's been unchanged for at least a decade

And you dip dip, dip...

On a somewhat related topic:

Works almost like stereograms (with duplicated object)!
