In thinking about my final project for LiveWeb, my mind jumped back a decade or two to a movie I still watch very frequently…HACKERS. There is a scene in particular that I was thinking about, the tv station scene. At right you can see the clip from the movie. In the scene Zero Cool now known as Crash Override hacks into a tv station to watch what he want to watch. Not necessarily needed in today’s stream centered view experience but novel none the less. While there he is met face to face with, of all things, another hacker- Acid Burn. They fight over what will air for the individual viewing pleasure. Burn eventually wins and boots Crash Override for the network. 

So my idea is to create a viewing window with a library of videos around it as well as the ability to “go live” to let users compete for dominance in the space.
