Description

OSS is a CD-ROM that, once launched, hijacks the user's computer, presenting a series of of chaotic, aesthetic experiences that transform the components of the operating system into compositional elements. The desktop shakes, windows are spawned endlessly, and the mouse becomes a drawing tool.

OSS mimics a computer operating system, but in horrible disarray. Let it hijack your computer. Images and shapes take over the screen.
