Stitch Yourself exhibit.

The London Science Museum's Who Am I exhibit opened on June 30th, 2010. Two hundred and fifty nine little stitched selves crowded into the entrance way display case. I can't display the pictures here, but here are links to the overall exhibit and the Science Museum Logo in the foreground of the exhibit.

There are several close-ups of the exhibit, but I haven't been able to spot my little doll. Stitch London says that they catalogued each entry and will be featuring all of the dolls in blog posts over the next few months. I'll keep an eye out for mine. Hopefully she made it to the UK and isn't lost at sea.

"Bad artists copy. Great artists steal." - Pablo Picasso



There is a very interesting project on the internet called We Feel Fine. They have written software that searches through blogs to find the statement "I feel". Their software collects these sentances plus some information about the blogger including their age, gender, location, and weather at the time of the post. All of the sentances come together in different pictures and give us an idea of how the world feels. You can view the applet by clicking on "Interactive Version" on their website and check out the feelings swirling around us on the internet. Apparently, they also have a book out which would be interesting to check out too.
