About it
A screen made of splats shows a video or a GIF: every pixel of the picture is a small splat whose color changes with each frame. It comes in four styles: an old TV with a walnut cabinet and a curved glass face, a flat TV on a stand, a cinema with velvet curtains and rows of seats, and a hologram floating above its projector.
Tap it to switch it on: the old TV's picture opens from a bright line, the flat TV fades up, the curtains part, or the hologram flickers up from its beam. Tap the picture to pause and play. To switch off, tap the old TV's power knob (the picture shrinks to a bright dot, as old tube sets did), the small button beside the flat TV's red light, the curtains (they close) or the hologram's base, or use the button in the Splash tab. Turn on the sound with the speaker button, and open your own video or GIF in the Splash tab. Sample chooses the built-in video or galloping-horse GIF.
