What it does
Each round end: If this is your only card here, +1 Power to this card.
Each round end fires as every round finishes.
It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 3 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Creators cards are strongest on their own, and some only get going late.
The site, in 2003
Miltos Manetas's web artwork that turns the movements of your mouse into lines, blobs and splashes of paint, in homage to Jackson Pollock.
Manetas dates it to 2003. Its Flash interactive was based on Splatter by Michal Migurski of Stamen Design, it won a People's Voice Webby, and it later became an iPhone app.
In 2003: Made this year by Manetas, who had launched his art movement Neen at New York's Gagosian Gallery in 2000.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
Net Art: Websites that are artworks, by people who saw the browser as a canvas.
