A cat, a wooden boat, and Van Gogh's night.
An interactive HCI design study: sail a wooden boat crewed by a real cat across the real canvas of Vincent van Gogh's The Starry Night (1889), to a live solo-piano arrangement of Pachelbel's Canon in D that begins the moment you arrive. Discover the painting's six landmarks, gather twenty-six motes of stray starlight, call a golden dawn over the same sky — and read the companion design paper, written into the demo itself.
