”Air Lines is an art project showing worldwide airliner routes. Every single scheduled flight on any given day is reresented by a fine line from it’s point of origin to it’s port of destination. Thereby forming a net of thousands of lines. Hubs like JFK, FRA or DXB turn into dark knots where lines meet, lesser served local services are only are a subtle hint.” Choose from 4 different posters. Each one is printed on state of the art offset printers on high quality heavyweight fine-art paper. Securely packed and shipped in cardboard mailing tube. The white on black version is limited to a print run of only 100 each.” [via jgebbia on Twitter]

Dreamlines is “a non-linear, interactive visual experience” by Leonardo Solaas. “The user enters one or more words that define the subject of a dream [s]he would like to dream. The system looks in the Web for images related to those words, and takes them as input to generate an ambiguous painting, in perpetual change, where elements fuse into one another, in a process analogous to memory and free association...The drawing itself is produced by 1500 autonomous particles in perpetual movement.” Shown above is a static screenshot of the output of my keywords “sky robot red”, but you should try it real-time to see the animated ghostly effects.
