Topanga - Nightshifting - A-Frame webexperiment

I was presented a simple drawing by Topanga's bandleader. We both envisioned a weird webexperiment to showcase one of their songs. While there are simpler, more efficiently performing tools to build such a web-experience, I saw it as an opportunity to try out A-Frame, a cutting edge way to build 3D web experiences in a very friendly HTML kind of way. It's an open source framework for easily creating WebVR experiences with html. The project is initiated by Mozilla's virtual reality research team. Read more on their website aframe.io.

Puzzled together using A-Frame, Blender and a whole bunch of open source knowledge.
