“The Aleph?” I repeated.<\/div>\n
“Yes, the only place on earth where all places are — seen from every angle,
each standing clear, without any confusion or blending…”
<The Aleph>, Jorge Luis Borges <\/p>\n

Photographs are \u00a0a source of realistic and symbolic information about the world. A number of artists including \u00a0John Baldessari, Hans-Peter Feldmann and Joachim Schmid have explored social and cultural collectivity through found photographs since the late 1960s. The accessibility and materiality of photographs on the Web bring new possibilities to such a practice. Billions of annotated photographs taken from around the world are readily accessible, and the images can be automatically analysed and synthesized beyond physical limitations. The web photo archive provides a foundation to explore the world from a new perspective.<\/p>\n

\u2018A Million Seasons\u2019 attempts to visualize each season with a million photos collected from the web. A season is an abstract concept in flux. White cherry blossoms in the street, a lady in pink skirts, yellow leaves on sprouts… Spring is differently experienced and recorded in different time and space. This work gathers up the world\u2019s imageries of the season to describe the ‘image of Spring’. A million Flickr photos tagged \u2018spring\u2019 are crawled, and each photo is turned into one pixel with an average color. The one million pixels from one million photos represent Spring. The images of the rest of the seasons are created the same way.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
