This is a project created on accident by CMU student Shan Huang in 2014. It’s a Google chrome plugin that looks through a user’s history and collects all the favicons of all the websites visited. It then organizes all the favicons and arranges them into a large mural based on oldest link to newest. Each image is still functional, so when clicked it will redirect you to the original website. What I really like about this project is how it transforms everyday online browsing into an art form. It also shows us the overwhelming amount of times people use the internet and go on a website in a day or just an hour in just one image. It’s truly a beautiful but also very reflective and realistic piece.
