Images have been reduced to thumbnails, collected from unknown sources, recontextualized, and presented as new. This weekly process abandons structured content in favor of random words and current topics. Content is pulled from Google image searches and collaged together to create an evolving piece of “new” content. Search results are specific to that day and time. Search results change as image popularity is processed and reprocessed. These collages are snapshots of a moment in time, the evolution of what words mean, and a personal process of visual exploration.
