Unbelievably, the claps in the music sync’d in exact time with the clap animation at the bottom. (It didn’t do this the second time, very pleased with the serendipity)
Thanks Rohan. I was worried the music wouldn’t play, and spam blockers would flag an image-heavy email. But it seems to have gotten through alright. Email is such a restrictive format but that’s precisely what leads to creative workarounds. More to come!

A beautiful thing .
Haha! Yes! I matched the frame rate of the gif with the time of the beat. It doesn’t sync up every time but when it does it’s magic. ✨
I came here to say, it worked like magic for me! Thank you for a little delight in my day!
me too - loved it!
Me too! What a lovely peppy way to start my Saturday. Thank you to Austin Kleon for recommending this.
Come on now, that's too good
Haha. Thanks man!
THE BEST EMAIL I'VE GOTTEN IN YEARS. Thank you so much for the delight and the inspiration to create!
Thank you, Rachel! I love to hear this.
Eyes get wider as the animated claps at the end sync with the music. Amazing Erik! Thank you!
That was very sweet! I LOVED that the music and the clapping hands are in tandem! Thank you for this art zine!
Just fantastic! Thanks for the bit of unbridled joy.
Your work brings me so much joy. I love your zine, combining music, art and animation.
Including music really set the tone. Excited to see how this format progresses!

This is everything!
I'm amused to pieces, a spray of confetti. Thanks, Erik!

Brillant idea and content!!
This is genius!!! The clapping gif sync with the music was so nice. The most creative way to use Substack ever.
