Inventive use of static, but I expected more static and not just “moving noise”. I found it okay to play.

A wide world of crazy static, interrupted and corrupted images could be used – that’d be awesome in some ways. You could use coloured static, or broken/corrupted images (do it via. some code or something!), or loads of other visual effects playing on the way it’s done. Would make it easier to see too, most likely.
