The Epic, Tragic, Holistic Inside Story of Dr. Icon

May 5, 2005 cz 2005

CNC carved desktop icon (from a 3d model) of a JPEG Photoshop file, then glued on the cover of a book (“The World Is Flat” by Thomas Friedman) and painted with the same colors and patterns of the original book cover (hidden underneath the small piece of plastic). From a distance of 60-70 cm (27″) it is quite impossible to see the camouflaged sculpted icon.
