What is Kings Cross Coke 2.0?

Kings Cross Coke 2.0
by John Rotenstein

The Coca-Cola symbol is undoubtedly the most recognisable in the world due to the massive marketing efforts undertaken by the Coca-Cola Company.

One particular Coca-Cola advertisement can be found in Kings Cross, just outside the CBD of Sydney, Australia. Not only is it one of the largest advertisements in the country, it also proudly flaunts its messages with a barrage of flashing lights, not all of which are always working correctly.

This program is a tribute to that sign and to the attractiveness of its multiple light patterns. While the real sign has only seven patterns, which constantly repeat, KINGS CROSS COKE is capable of displaying thousands of light patterns in a totally random fashion.

For lucky colour users, you can even randomise the colours of the sign's elements. It's rather hoopy, really.

Kings Cross Coke operates under MultiFinder to give you the ultimate background pattern.

It's the real thing.

Kings Cross Coke is distributed under the HappiWare™ System:
IF YOU LIKE IT, REMEMBER TO SMILE!

But seriously, if you do like Kings Cross Coke, I would appreciate your sending me a picture postcard of your home town, just so I can see how far this little program has spread.
