This flipbook collage recreates part of the Eameses’ iconic 1977 film, Powers of Ten, using only found-imagery from the internet.
Photos from Google Images' 'visually similar' search function, the U.S. Geological Survey, NASA, and various mapping software were cropped (and in some cases, lightly altered) to reconstruct continuity.
Created independently during a creative residency awarded by Adobe. Project inspired by Christian Marclay’s The Clock. The online presentation of the flipbook was adapted from the ingenious site for the Conditional Design Workbook. (The closest digital approximation of what manipulating an actual flipbook feels like…and very interesting book.) Thanks to Daniel for his extensive help and Patrick for the Javascript lifeline.
