We create an image out of relations. We think in symbols, metaphors and conceptions. The computer uses the pixel as a unit to form images we can interpret. It doesn't use meaning, ideas or semiotics to articulate. Just color and position. The boundaries of a pixel get very clear in a microscopic view. Even when the computer gets a clear formula of a line, it is unable to display it with just one pixel. With every pixel added to the matrix, the image gets clearer. There is an algorithm which helps to clean the edges of straight pixel images. It is called anti-aliasing. But like the computer itself it has its limitations due to the concept of fragmentation. With this project I want to show the difference between a line and the computerized display of it. | We create an image out of relations. We think in symbols, metaphors and conceptions.

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 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. | |||
