Douglas Coupland
Douglas coupland, now a writer, was a former graphic designer, however he has recently started to explore the desigworld again, after commenting on the ‘rewired brain’ and the digital age, he currated a series of dots.
at first galnce the dots look normal and the un organised dots dont look like anything much, but looked at through a device, you can see an image on someone jumping off the world trade center. the point of this is to show what we can see through the world of a lense.
