Aagas was developed for C6's Stories in Motion performance of the Brighton Festival 2006. The software follows audio changes and creates a nebulous gas of ASCII characters that rapidly evolves and disperses as it responds to the music.

The show was featuring Irvine Welsh, the author of Trainspotting, Fight Club writer Chuck Palahniuk and Phil Hartnoll of Longrange.
