I found it nearly impossible to concentrate on what the video was trying to show me because of the background music.

The video is also 30fps, which I think is completely inadequate for demonstrating a subtle effect like this.
The video really is a disservice to the effect. I played the video first and had a very different opinion of it vs. the playground!
Are any YouTube videos more than 30fps?
You led me into thinking that slow motion would work very well in the video.
Maybe I should make an animated GIF next time.
Just start automatically tabbing through the demo elements in a loop, why bother with anything but the real thing? Make it so it's easy to interrupt and take control over. Really neat idea by the way.
It wouldn't be that great for this case: http://oi42.tinypic.com/wrfj41.jpg
LOL, that'a little extreme. He could just mute the sound :)
LOved the music but, yes, I found it very distracting as well :) Fortunately the text wasw very clear, and so was the live demo.

(the music, was it ยต-Ziq? it sounds like him)
