More than two miles long and 1,142 feet tall, Uluru, the red sandstone rock formation in Australia’s Northern Territory, wows travelers during the day.

But now, a new night spectacle Wintjiri Wiru illuminates the darkness adjacent to the monolith in a way that reveals Indigenous culture while dazzling with high-tech sound and lights.

“Humans are drawn to light—just think of how compelling sunsets are,” says Melbourne light artist Bruce Ramus, who designed the work in collaboration with the local Anangu people and Voyages Indigenous Tourism.

Wintjiri Wiru is just the latest offering—and newest technology — in the tradition of son et lumière (sound and light) shows, grand public spectacles projected on to (or close to) historic buildings and natural wonders.

These mash-ups of pageantry, culture, and art are experiencing a boom fueled by digital advances and tourist sites looking to attract visitors after dark.

Here’s where to see the latest shows, plus why visitors love these “virtual campfires.”

How did sound and light shows start?

Paul Robert-Houdin created the first sound and light show in 1952 at France’s Château de Chambord.

Music and narration played while slide projectors splashed colored lights on the 16th-century palace.

“We had the feeling that a new way of discovering and understanding monumental heritage was perhaps being born,” one observer wrote in Le Figaro newspaper.

The concept was a hit.

“Standing in the dark and being immersed in sounds and images creates a sense of enchantment,” says Jane Lovell, a professor of tourism at Canterbury Christ Church University in England.

In the following decades, other storied sites harnessed that magic, such as the Red Fort in Delhi, India, and Independence Hall in Philadelphia.

“There were captive audiences for these attractions, so the efforts were minimal—just light up these beautiful things that already existed,” says California light show producer Ryan Miziker.

Early technology was expensive and bulky: sofa-sized slide carousels, finicky stereo speakers that malfunctioned in bad weather.

The storytelling, if mostly historically accurate, could be clunky and lecturing.

At Egypt’s Pyramids at Giza, the still-running circa-1961 show features the Sphinx “narrating” a lofty spiel about ancient life as murky colored lights wash over the monuments.

How tech took over light shows

“Son et lumieres started out as pretty rudimentary things—a castle would be lit up and a soundtrack would say, ‘this tower was built in 1592,’” says Ross Ashton of London’s Projection Studio, which designs extravaganzas for attractions from Welsh castles to Indian fortresses.

But by the 1990s, innovations in video, lasers, and audio meant creators could screen riveting, mind-bending shows.

“Digital video changed everything,” says Miziker.

“We had software to do 3-D mapping, which takes a round object like a globe and flattens it, or wraps any structure in overlapping, blending geometry.”

Sound evolved, too.

“Bells, spoken voices from different directions, or a fireball rolling, you can layer sound up, so it feels like a tapestry,” says Projection Studio’s sound artist Karen Monid.

Today’s sound and light shows are like mini action movies screened on historic buildings or natural wonders.

San Antonio’s The Saga wraps the 18th-century San Fernando Cathedral in sound effects (mariachi ballads, cannon blasts) and painterly images (folk dancers, renderings of the Alamo) to tell the story of the Texas city.

In Jerusalem, Israel, the ancient Tower of David has two night shows, one on city history and the other about the biblical shepherd-turned-ruler that gave the site its name.

Wintjiri Wiru harnesses LED lights, lasers, sound, and 1,100 drones to recount a legend from the Anangu, who consider Uluru sacred.

The show depicts mala (wallaby-rabbit) beings battling a gigantic devil dog spirit.

“Combine light with sound—in this case Anangu songs and other effects—and it’s like the desert is speaking,” says Ramus.

Other projects are more abstract, such as the new Aura Invalides show at Les Invalides in Paris, which fills the grand interiors of the historic military monument with surreal rays of colored light and outlines architectural elements in laser graffiti.

“People move around within the building, making it more like a 360-degree immersion than something didactical,” says Manon McHugh, a spokesperson for Moment Factory, the studio that created the show.

Why travelers love spectacles

Experts think people are drawn to these shows for their sense of wonder and spectacle.

“Sound and light shows are like fireworks—it’s impossible to look away,” says Miziker.

"Since audiences are sitting in the dark, there’s cognitive dissonance, with the atmosphere almost becoming its own entity,” says Lovell.

https://youtu.be/FV3XdOda3zM

Plus, in this age of Instagram, sound and light spectacles make ideal selfie backdrops or video ops.

“When Moment Factory started doing shows, we didn’t want people to have their phones out,” says McHugh.

Now, other digital production studios build in elements like photo booths to encourage participants to share their experiences.

How sound and light shows help tourist sites

Sound and light shows can be expensive and time-consuming to design.

(Wintjiri Wiru was developed over several years and cost $10 million.)

But many tourist attractions and cities are willing to shell out.

“They produce new income streams,” says Ashton. “People normally go home at night, but if you sell them a ticket to an illumination, they’ll come back.”

Many sound and light experiences in public, urban spaces — outside cathedrals, on city halls, across skyscrapers — are free, but paid for by cities to give visitors an excuse to stay an extra night.

“We used to think of tourism as a daytime activity, but there has been this tourist-ification of the night,” says Andrew Smith, a professor of urban experiences at England’s University of Westminster.

“Now cities want to attract people and keep them in town. It’s a commodification of the night, a way to extend economic and cultural activity.”

Studies indicate that these shows might even make city downtowns feel safer. “It starts to dematerialize the buildings,” says Ramus.

“You just see the lights, and our cities become transparent. They feel gentler.”

A Behind-the-Scenes Look at In-House Film Production Workflows

Brands are increasingly using in-house film production to cut costs, preserve creative control, and streamline processes in an era of fast content cycles and high audience expectations. An in-house model consolidates all capabilities under one roof, as opposed to contracting out each step of a video project to different vendors. We examine how this integrated approach works below, from the initial idea to the finished product, and why it is revolutionizing contemporary media production.

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Amit (@amitsingh.dop)

1. Pre-Production: Establishing an Effective Basis Long before the camera rolls, in-house film production gets underway. Concepts are honed and logistics are finalized during the pre-production stage:

Kick-Off Workshop & Creative Brief

To establish goals, target audience, key messages, and success metrics, teams from strategy, creative, and production come together. Deliverables (such as a 2-minute hero film or a 30-second social cut) and distribution channels are described in a shared document.

Storyboarding and Scriptwriting

Writers create scripts that strike a balance between narrative momentum and brand voice. Storyboards map camera angles, transitions, and on-screen graphics, converting text into visual frames. This step benefits from real-time feedback loops between graphic artists, directors, and writers in an internal setting.

Allocating Resources and Scheduling

Producers schedule talent, reserve studio time, and assign equipment using digital calendars and resource-management software. Internal management of all equipment and staff reduces booking conflicts, removes markups, and expedites approvals.

2. Production: Bringing the Vision to Life

Standardized workflows that put efficiency first are followed by in-house crews:

Stand-Up in the Morning

The department heads (camera, lighting, art, sound, and digital tech) gather for a 10-minute huddle at the beginning of each shoot day to discuss progress, confirm daily objectives, and identify any obstacles.

Technical Practice & Setup

Camera blocking :To improve camera paths and framing, the director and cinematographer block movements.

Lighting Tests: To create mood and guarantee uniformity throughout shots, gaffers modify key, fill, and backlights.

Sound Checks: To ensure clear audio capture, boom operators and sound mixers test microphones and ambient levels.

Photography Principal

A digital technician tethers footage to monitors to record scenes in takes. Instant quality checks are made possible by this real-time playback, which enables immediate approval of focus, exposure, performance, and framing.

Preparation in Parallel

The art department and wardrobe stylists set up the next scene while the current one is playing.

3. Post-Production: Creating the Last Cut

Close cooperation between editors, colorists, sound designers, and visual effects artists is possible with an in-house model:

Media Consumption & Structure

A centralized asset management system receives all of the clips. To make search and review easier, metadata such as scene, take, and camera settings are tagged.

Editing Offline

Editors put together a rough cut, paying attention to the pacing and narrative flow. Frequent "cut-in-place" meetings with directors guarantee that the tone and structure are in agreement.

Music Integration & Sound Design

They apply audio sweetening, eliminate noise, and balance levels to produce a captivating auditory experience.

Visual Effects & Color Grading

For smooth integration, VFX artists frequently work directly with editors to add titles, motion graphics, or composite elements.

Client Evaluation and Iteration

The project stays on track thanks to quick feedback cycles, which typically last between 24 and 48 hours.

4. Interdepartmental Cooperation: The Internal Benefit

The organizational and physical co-location of teams is a defining characteristic of in-house film production.

Faster Communication: Short talks in the hallway take the place of long email exchanges, allowing for immediate problem solving.

Creative Synergy: As team members listen to and support one another's work, ideas come to them naturally.

Unified Quality Standards: By ensuring that all assets adhere to brand guidelines, shared review sessions strengthen a shared vision.

5. Advantages & Business Effects

Companies that use internal production processes benefit from a number of real benefits:

Speed to Market: Project timelines can be shortened by up to 30% by doing away with vendor coordination and external approvals.

Cost Savings: Compared to fully outsourced models, bundled in-house rates for labor, studio space, and equipment reduce overhead by 20–40%.

Creative Control: One cohesive team protects brand coherence and responds swiftly to shifting specifications or industry trends.

Data security: By keeping sensitive projects inside, the risks of sharing proprietary footage are reduced.

Brands can create more content faster and with more creative coherence by implementing in-house film production processes. Organizations can increase efficiency without compromising quality by combining all stages—from pre-production to post—into a single framework. Given the continued dominance of video on digital platforms, an internal model provides the flexibility and control that modern marketers require.

Understand speech recognition and synthesis

Speech recognition takes the spoken word and converts it into data that can be processed – often by transcribing it into text. The spoken words can be in the form of a recorded voice in an audio file, or live audio from a microphone. Speech patterns are analyzed in the audio to determine recognizable patterns that are mapped to words. To accomplish this, the software typically uses multiple…

The Five Tools I Wish I Had Known About Before Running TTRPGs Online

As I've been running tabletop RPGs online over the last year, there are some resources that I've been introduced to that I simply wished I'd known about sooner. These are them. Two are Discord-specific, the rest are system and platform agnostic. Maps and Mapping There are so many sites and places to get tokens and map-making tools. The one I keep coming back to, time and time again, is 2 Minute Tabletop. Not only are there are good selection of free and pay-what-you-want assets and finished maps, but a whole mess of tokens which you can customize to your heart's content. Their weekly promotional email is actually useful, introducing quickly what the new stuff is, why it's cool, and often including freebies as well. I've only recently discovered InnScribe Maps, but if there's a thing that immediately caught my attention it's the standalone rooms and buildings. Whether used within dungeon building software, as just graphics, or print cut-outs, simply having stand-alone buildings alone makes it easy to just drop them into whatever setting you need and worth supporting. Calendars Fantasy Calendar is what you need. The degree of customization is staggering ... but it's also still simple to use. Want to have a calendar that has five months of 20 days, three moons with different cycles, two seasons, and holidays dictated by the interplay of the moons and seasons? It can handle that. Want a 12-month calendar that is just the same as ours now with slightly different names? Done in a click. The free tier is enough if you just want to keep track of things yourself; the paid tier allows Discord integration and also to let your players add their own events on the same calendar. Discord Music And Soundboard You want Kenku. I've tried several other solutions, but if you want actual control over what is playing, from your library, plus a soundboard, this is it. Downsides: It's an electron app, and I'd like the interface to be a bit more compact. Upsides: It works, and easily. It joins your voice channel as a separate user, so everyone on the call can adjust its volume to their own preferences. It can handle tracklists of background music (just drag and drop) while also handling sound effects separately. Pay what you can, but I strongly urge you to take that seriously and give them some cash; this thing is worth it. Discord Recording I've never really tried to record Discord calls before, and thankfully I was introduced to Craig before I did. Craig also joins your voice channel and will record multi-channel audio, one channel per speaker, and allow you to download it for up to 7 days in a variety of formats for free. One of those formats is a ready-to-go Audacity project. Need it retained longer? Need a specialized format? Normalization to be done on their server? That's what the paid patreon levels are for. None of these tools or resources are absolutely essential to running a tabletop RPG online. But they definitely make the experience a lot easier and more fun for everyone.

AI Agent Development: How to Create Smarter Virtual Assistants

In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has dramatically reshaped how we interact with technology. One of the most exciting developments in the AI landscape is the evolution of virtual assistants. From Siri and Alexa to custom-built solutions for businesses, AI agent development are becoming an integral part of our digital experience. But how do you create a truly smart virtual assistant?

In this blog post, we’ll explore the steps involved in developing AI agents and share insights on how to make them smarter, more capable, and better at understanding users.

Understanding AI Agents

An AI agent is a software program that uses machine learning (ML), natural language processing (NLP), and other AI technologies to perform tasks and assist users. These agents can understand commands, make decisions, and interact with users in a human-like manner. Virtual assistants are one of the most popular forms of AI agents, with the goal of simplifying everyday tasks, answering questions, managing schedules, and even controlling IoT devices.

However, creating a truly intelligent AI agent requires more than just integrating pre-built AI models. It requires an understanding of the problem you're solving, the user’s needs, and how to ensure the agent can evolve and improve over time.

Key Components of AI Agent Development

Natural Language Processing (NLP) NLP is the backbone of most AI agents. It enables the assistant to understand, interpret, and respond to human language. The more advanced the NLP model, the better the AI agent can comprehend nuances like context, tone, and intent behind user input.

Intent Recognition: The AI must determine the user's intent based on their input. For instance, when someone says, "What's the weather like today?", the agent needs to identify the intent as "weather inquiry."

Entity Recognition: After identifying the intent, the AI needs to extract relevant information, such as "today" for time or "New York" for location.

Context Handling: A smart AI should remember context from previous interactions. This allows it to handle follow-up questions like, "What about tomorrow’s forecast?"

Machine Learning (ML) Machine learning enables your AI agent to improve over time by learning from new data. Through supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning, AI agents can analyze patterns, adapt their responses, and make better predictions.

Supervised Learning: The AI is trained on labeled data, learning how to map inputs to the correct output. For example, training it to identify different intents in a conversation.

Unsupervised Learning: This allows the AI to discover hidden patterns in data without explicit labels, enabling it to understand user behavior and preferences more intuitively.

Reinforcement Learning: In this method, AI agents learn by trial and error. Feedback from users and results help the agent adjust its decision-making process to optimize its performance.

Voice and Speech Recognition A major component of virtual assistants is voice interaction. Voice recognition allows AI agents to understand spoken commands, which can be more natural and efficient for users than typing. Advanced speech-to-text technologies, such as those used by Google’s Speech-to-Text API or Amazon’s Transcribe, help the AI accurately convert audio into text, even when the speech is noisy or contains accents and variations.

Dialog Management For an AI agent to manage conversations, a robust dialog management system is essential. This system organizes the conversation flow and decides what the AI should say next. It ensures that responses are coherent, contextually appropriate, and follow a logical flow.

Finite State Machines (FSMs): A simple way to model dialog where each user interaction transitions between a predefined set of states.

Rule-Based Systems: The AI uses rules to decide how to respond based on specific user inputs, but these systems lack flexibility.

Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL): A more advanced technique, where AI agents learn through exploration and feedback from real conversations.

Personalization One of the key features that makes a virtual assistant "smart" is its ability to personalize responses based on user preferences. A good AI agent learns from each interaction and adapts its behavior over time to suit individual users.

User Profiles: The agent can build a personalized profile that stores preferences, frequently used tasks, favorite services, etc.

Recommendation Systems: Just like Netflix recommends movies based on your viewing history, AI assistants can suggest actions or services based on previous behaviors or inputs.

Integration with Other Systems To create a truly useful AI agent, it needs to integrate with other tools, applications, and services. Whether it's scheduling appointments, controlling smart home devices, or fetching data from cloud storage, seamless integration ensures the assistant can handle a variety of tasks.

APIs and Webhooks: Allow the assistant to communicate with third-party services. For example, an AI assistant can connect to a weather API to fetch weather updates or use a calendar API to schedule appointments.

IoT Integration: Many virtual assistants can control IoT devices, such as lights, thermostats, or security cameras, providing users with a hands-free experience.

Making Your AI Agent Smarter

To create a truly intelligent and efficient virtual assistant, you must focus on several core aspects:

Continuous Learning and Improvement An AI agent should be able to learn from every interaction and improve over time. Collecting data on user preferences, feedback, and failed interactions can help fine-tune the model. For example, when a user asks a question and the agent gives an incorrect answer, that mistake should trigger a retraining phase to prevent it from happening again.

Context-Aware Responses Smart assistants need to maintain context. If a user asks, "What’s the weather in Paris?" and then says, "How about tomorrow?", the agent should understand that the second query relates to the previous one. This context awareness makes the agent more fluid and conversational, instead of just responding to individual queries in isolation.

Multimodal Interaction A truly smart assistant doesn’t just understand text or voice but can also integrate visual elements. For example, if a user asks, "Show me pictures of cats," an AI could display a gallery of images or even send them directly through a messaging app. Multi-modal interaction makes the assistant more versatile and responsive.

Error Recovery Mistakes are inevitable. The smartest AI agents are those that can gracefully recover from errors. For example, if the assistant misinterprets a command or fails to process the user’s request, it should be able to ask for clarification, apologize, and provide alternative solutions.

Ethical Considerations and Privacy Smarter AI agents also need to be designed with ethical guidelines and privacy in mind. Transparent data usage policies, user consent for data collection, and strict security measures should all be incorporated into the development process. Respecting user privacy while offering personalized experiences is crucial for building trust.

Tools and Frameworks for AI Agent Development

Several platforms and tools can help streamline the process of creating intelligent AI agents:

Google Dialogflow: A robust tool for building conversational interfaces and integrating NLP into your applications.

Microsoft Azure Bot Services: A platform that allows you to build, test, and deploy intelligent bots using Azure AI services.

Rasa: An open-source framework for building conversational AI, with a focus on machine learning-based NLP and dialogue management.

IBM Watson: A suite of AI tools for building advanced AI assistants with strong NLP and machine learning capabilities.

Conclusion

Developing a smarter virtual assistant requires a combination of advanced technologies, continuous learning, and a deep understanding of user needs. As AI progresses, creating an AI agent development that can handle more complex tasks, respond naturally, and offer personalized experiences will become increasingly important. By integrating NLP, machine learning, voice recognition, and context-aware interaction, developers can create virtual assistants that not only meet the demands of today’s users but also evolve to handle the challenges of tomorrow’s digital landscape.

Building a smarter virtual assistant is not just about writing code — it’s about understanding the human experience and creating technology that seamlessly fits into it. The future of AI agents is promising, and with the right approach, developers can build intelligent systems that redefine how we interact with the world around us.

✷ 𝓦𝓔𝓔𝓚 3 - 𝓛𝓸𝓸𝓴𝓲𝓷𝓰 𝓪𝓽 𝓮𝓶𝓫𝓸𝓭𝓲𝓮𝓭 𝓬𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓽𝓸𝓻𝓼.

Alongside my flaring interest in the plunderphonic style has been my discovery of an album that has quickly become one of my favorites; released 23 November 2023: Mimosa.

A collaborative effort from Brazilian artists cabezadenego, Mbé and Leyblack, the album uses energetic sampling of Afro-Brazilian music new and old, particular the genre Baile Funk, a music genre of hiphop and Miami Bass sensibilities that originated from the Rio de Janeiro slums - or favelas - in the early 1990s, with a jumpy, vulgar and generally fun attitude.

The sampling approach, as well as very straightforward lyricism about gay sex; entails an incredibly danceable musical experience of black queerness in Brazil: And for me, a window into a part of me nearly forgotten. Not the black part, though. I'm pretty olive.

TRANSLATED FROM A DECEMBER 2023 GABINETE ARTICLE (found on Instagram)

I made an effort to translate this myself, rather than use Google.

I ended up having to search up the translations for the words sintonia, autodenominado and faixas; overall, a nice turnout!

MIMOSA é um disco manifesto e de celebração da tentativa falha de apagamento da cultura e dos ritmos afrobrasileiros que foram, e são, marginalizados e perseguidos desde a formação do país. A sonoridade experimental inteiramente composta por samples constrói uma linha do tempo, uma cronologia, desses ritmos: desde a macumba - sendo a raíz de tudo - passa pelo drum n’ bass e o miami bass, até os funks que são hits hoje no Tik Tok. Com muita sintonia e criatividade, o trio de artistas, a partir de uma residência artística na Espanha, formam um novo time, autodenominado por Luiz Felipe na nossa entrevista como um grupo de jazz cronologista. ‘Mimosa’ possui 14 faixas e está disponível em todas as plataformas digitais.

MIMOSA is a realized album and a celebration of the tentative failure in erasure of the culture and Afro-Brazilian rhythms that were, and are, marginalized and persecuted since the nation's founding.

The experimental sonority, entirely composed from samples, constructs a timeline, a chronology, of these rhythms, from the macumba (Afro-Brazilian religious practice) - being the root of everything - to drum n' bass and Miami bass, even the funks (Brazilian funk songs) that are hits on TikTok today.

With much syntony and creativity, a trio of artists, from an artistic residence in Spain, formed a new team, named by Luiz Felipe in our interview with a chronologic jazz group.

'Mimosa' has 14 varieties (referring to songs) and is available on all streaming platforms.

"For me the sample has the function of reframing (?), you recount the history via a new perspective [...] I find that the sample has a profound connection with black culture through its principles [...] it is based on our very own history. And the sample for me isn't just in music, it is in the argument; you can sample video, you can sample ideas, you can sample words, the way in which we created this project was entirely sampled."

𝓓𝓮𝓿𝓮𝓵𝓸𝓹𝓶𝓮𝓷𝓽 ✶

The namesake - and sampling style - of my mapping piece draws from Replica, a 2011 plunderphonics album by Oneohtrix Point Never. In this work, artist Daniel Lopatin sampled 80s-90s television advertisements, layering them over thick synthesizer ambience to create a cultural reflection of a bygone time period.

Weingarten, Christopher (October 2011). "Download: Oneohtrix Point Never's Buzzing 'Replica'". The Village Voice.

This philosophy is most apparent in the song "Nassau".

After a day's worth of tinkering in the free audio software Audacity, I finished a 'replica' of my own:

MARIA

The campus was especially quiet tonight. Everyone on campus had gone home for the winter, except Maria. She sat at her desk, the computer monitor illuminated her face with a blue hue in the otherwise pitch black room.

(gif credit: https://onlineresize.club/2021-club.html)

In one swift motion, she cleared her cluttered desk and swept everything onto the floor, leaving a bag of spicy Doritos behind.

“I’ll tidy later…” Maria mumbled.

Maria opened her favourite battle royale game and put on her headset. She reached her hand into the bag of chips, the crinkle of the bag and the loud crunching sounds emphasised the silence of the dorm. When her avatar popped up on the screen, she wiped the red dust from her fingers on her grey hoodie. She navigated to her favourite map, selected “duo mode”, and clicked start.

Bing!

Maria had been matched with another player who introduced himself as Nick. There was a robotic quality to his voice, but Maria didn’t think much of it, lots of gamers use voice altering softwares to hide their identities. The game began. A small map appeared on the top right corner of Maria’s screen, her avatar was represented with a blue dot and Nick’s a red dot. The two decided to split up.

(audio credit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SardSMw4N-s&t=6s&ab_channel=AudioLibrary)

The two dots moved apart in opposite directions.

Maria's back was hunched and her eyes were glued to the screen in deep focus. In less than twenty minutes, Maria had killed six opponents.

“Wow you’re good!” Nick exclaimed.

Maria awkwardly thanked him for the compliment and continued searching for the next victim. She reached for some Doritos. Nick’s voice boomed into her headphones.

“I love Doritos.”

Maria was caught off guard, “yeah… How did you know I was having Doritos?”

“The crunch.”

“Oh. Fair enough. You wanna come meet me at point 4?.”

Nick agreed.

The red dot moved closer to the blue dot.

Maria continued snacking on her chips as she waited for Nick to arrive, casually wiping the dust on her hoodie again.

“That’s so gross Maria, you better hope that doesn’t stain.”

Maria freezes. What the fuck? She looked around her room, she was alone. Nick laughed on the other end. Maria’s breathing got heavier as she started to panic. She threw her headset off her head, got up her chair, and checked outside her door. The hallway is empty. She was alone.

(gif credit: https://support.blinkforhome.com/en_US/using-mini/2279381)

She glances at the blinking camera attached to her computer monitor. That must be it, she thought. Maria marched back over to her computer and ripped the attachment off. She put her headset back on, though she stayed standing. “What the hell? You some kind of sick pervert or something? What’s wrong with you?” she shouted into the mic. “I’m not a pervert. Why don’t you sit back down?” What the actual fuck? Maria grabbed a pair of scissors that she had thrown onto the floor earlier and cut the wire from the camera attachment. Nick laughed. His chilling, low pitched chuckle sent goosebumps up Maria’s arm.

The red dot was now next to the blue dot, but Nick’s avatar was nowhere to be seen. Maria heard a rustle from outside her window, she inched toward it gripping her scissors tightly in her hands. She slowly reached for the curtain and flung it open. a man was standing outside her window smiling at her.
