```kunst``` is a deamon that extracts the album art from the songs playing in ```mpd``` and displays them in the a little window. It doesn't loop on a timer, instead it waits for ```mpd``` to send a ```player``` event. When it receives a ```player``` event, it wakes up and extracts the album art of the current playing track. If there no embbeded album art, it will try to fetch the album art from the internet. This maks ```kunst```really lightweight and makes it idle at ```~0%``` CPU usage.
