The big picture

I'm moderating the ID interactive awards today and was just looking at this website called
www.understandingvorn.org, which searches the web and pulls randomn images that begin with the letters "V" "O" "R" or "N" onto the homepage. The project reminds me of Ben Rubin's "Listening Post" (mentioned in earlier posting).

Although the VORN part--organizing the images by letter--is not particularly profound, the idea of deconstructing sites and presenting components out of the original context for the purpose of creating a kind of overview of online culture is...well...cool. It makes me feel plugged in to what is happening this instant. Which is what networked technology has always been good at.

More later...
