I don't even know where to start with this

For some really strange reason, Burger King is running this website. It doesn't even pretend to make sense to me.

Thanks to Fark for the tip.

-- Update --
Okay, I sorta get the site now. You can tell the "chicken" to do something and he will. I entered "Play the trumpet", and almost immediately the guy in the chicken suit pantomimed jazz player doing a trumpet solo.

I have no idea if this is a live site (it would seem to be -- but it could also be a fairly large database of clips using a lexical parser for search matches) and what Burger King would hope to get out of this, but it's interesting.

-- Update 2 --
The good folks over at Boing Boing have done some research on the chicken.
