Image Tracer (2005)

Trace: a mark or line left by something that has passed…


Image Tracer is a collaborative work with De Geuzen. This project adds the temporal dimension to internet content's otherwise somewhat flat, momentary, and memoryless character. Juxtaposing the results of repeated searches delineates the dynamics of stagnation and change of the online image.

List of tracers:

The first version (Underfire Chicago Chapter)
Traces of Quaero
"Images of Resistance" (DigitalArtLab Israel edition)
Walk Obama

 

(Adobe has recently released a project with similar functionality, of course, different interface, of course... here)
