Work from All Streets and Print Studies.
Descriptions follow image order. Go to his website, you won’t regret it.
“All of the streets in the lower 48 United States: an image of 26 million individual road segments. No other features (such as outlines or geographic features) have been added to this image, however they emerge as roads avoid mountains, and sparse areas convey low population. This began as an example I created for a student in the fall of 2006, and I just recently got a chance to document it properly.”
“pockyvision.. two thousand dbn applets, that are on our courseware server at dbn.media.mit.edu. whenever a user saves their code to the server, an image snapshot is taken. an interactive version of this piece was the result of some productive procrastination.”
“video unravelled.. trailer from the movie fargo, each line of pixels is an entire frame of video unwound horizontally. mmm.. texture.”
