Friday Fun with Google Maps


Chinese artist Lu Xinjian creates paintings inspired by Google Maps. His series of paintings City DNA are re-imaginings of the Google Maps satellite view of a number of cities.

In the UK Merceds Benz are running a TV advertising campaign that extends the idea in their clever viral game, Escape the Map. This week I also came across this 'making of' video. Who knew it was so hard to recreate the world of Street View?



Minecraft Comes to Life
