The Biggest Drawing In The World

May 27th, 2008

This video is long, but pretty freakin’ cool.

From Sell Sell

The Biggest Drawing In The World is a project by Erik Nordenankar using a beefed up GPS device in a suitcase. The suitcase gets transported around the world by DHL according to instructions given by Nordenankar, and the resulting tracking line from the GPS system creates what is in effect a giant world-sized portrait. It all sounds very complicated, but the film brings it to life really well. Have a look at the website here. It’s a fun project. It’s also a great lesson in creating a bit of digital/web content that is interesting but also very relevant to a particular product or brand. Which isn’t always the case, but is good to see.

    I watched that and was totally impressed, and then I visited the website … and read the disclaimer about it being fictional. How disappointing.
