The application runs in two parts (although at the time of writing there is still a number of components that need to be figured out)

The first part handles the loading and embedding of the slideshow player. This is done by setting parameters and calling swfobject which is a tool that embeds flash objects into web pages. The swfobject is obtained by running Popcorn's getScript method and passing the url where the swfobject javascript file is located.
