bouncing logo

DVD corner hunter

A bouncing logo is a screen element—typically a company or channel logo—that moves around the display, reversing direction when it hits an edge.

The DVD screensaver logo became iconic, with viewers anticipating the satisfying moment when it lands perfectly in a corner.

The image represents idle entertainment and the humor of being transfixed by something pointless: We sat there for twenty minutes waiting for the bouncing logo to hit the corner.
