| Mathematically, a line consists of two connected points in a defined space.
| |
| In reality it is impossible to create an exact recreation of such a mathematic formula.
| |
|
| |
| We can use paper and pen to draw a line between two points. But we will never hit the ideological line precisely. It doesn't matter how accurate you draw, even if you would be able to draw with atoms. The idea of a line is much clearer than the analogue realization of it.

|
| |
| Computers use pixel as a unit to form images we can interpret.
| |
| The idea of a line is translated from the mathematic formula to color and position in a fragmented canvas.
| |
| Every pixel added to the matrix leads to a better resolution of the idea. Theoretically the line is always perfect. But even if the idea of a line is mathematically articulated, it is impossible to display it with just one pixel.

| This project emphasizes the differences between digital (anti-aliased, shortened AA) and analogue translations of one same idea.

| With web technologies from the last century, much of the content uploaded to the web is processed in a simply unevaluated way. Websites are cropping pictures, encoding music and summarizing texts. Most of the time the results of those procedures are being left as they are. In some cases, the intention of the content can not be reconstructed. I want to find those examples and let people interpret those meaningless contents to give them a new meaning.
