Anders Visti’s PONGdrian v1.0 is a game that mixes the videogame PONG with the art of Piet Mondrian.  Two players can play against each other, and the game has four levels. In every level there is a painting by Piet Mondrian in the middle. When the ball hits the painting it starts to crumble into small pieces of squares and rectangles and creating new abstract patterns based on the players performance. PONGdrian was first exhibited at the Møstings Hus, København in May 2007.
