Digital Canvases in the form of Mechanical Masterpieces

Mechanical Masterpieces is a collection of paintings reimagined for the 21st century. Optimized for short attention spans, it allows viewers to poke, switch, disco, inflate and water paintings to their heart’s content. The installation was created for The Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh as part of their Tough Art Residency.

A first-of-its-kind web-based exhibition live from the Science Museum in London and open to the world online at chromeweblab.com. Worldwide visitors both online and in-museum are able to make music with people across the world; trace routes across the internet’s vast network and discover where images are stored; watch their portrait being processed and drawn by a robot; and travel instantly to far away places.
