Concept Art Dictionary Gives A Words First Google Image Result Instead Of A Definition
Here's something that you'll either want to buy immediately -- or that will just strike you as a giant waste of paper. There's no in between. Though I will venture a guess that Sergey Brin was going to get to this after he finishes with his Google Spectacles. From Crap Is Good, we've learned that two London artist/designers, Ben West and Felix Heyes, have created a visual dictionary, courtesy of Google. In other words, the artists took an average dictionary and replaced every single word (that's 21K words for those of you counting along at home) with the first Google Image result for that particular word. Crazy? Maybe. Slightly brilliant? Call it maybe. The result is a 1,240-page pic-tionary comprised of JPEGs and PNGs that will shock, confuse, and amaze.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/YrcsyiLSgSc/
