It is an ongoing project that is updated regularly, and will continue to go on as long as the war does. The animation runs at ten frames per second&#8211;one frame for each day&#8211;and a single black dot indicates the geographic location that a US fatality occurred. Each dot starts as a white flash and a larger red dot that fades to black over the span of 30 frames\/days, and then slowly fades to grey over the span of the entire war. Accompanying the visual representation is a soft &#8216;tic&#8217; sound for each fatality, the volume of which increases relative to the number of fatalities that occurred simultaneously that day. More deaths in a smaller area produces visually deeper reds and audibly more pronounced &#8216;tics.&#8217;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.metafilter.com\">via<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wow, just pushing the red button made me feel uncomfortable (like I was responsible for starting it or something).
