The site BIGGEST DRAWING IN THE WORLD details a GPS-briefcase trip throughout the world. Artist Erik Nordenankar places a gps tracker inside a case and send this briefcase by DHL to create a biggest gps track map - Self Portrait.
Update : Gizmodo said that GPS-Tracked Biggest Drawing in the World is Complete Fake. The artist has added a line to the bottom of his webpage stating "This is fictional work. DHL did not transport the GPS at any time." And DHL confirmed that Nordenenkar never went any further than a warehouse the company allowed him to film in. Many pointed out that DHL delivery planes would have been highly unlikely to make the tight loops in the North Atlantic that form the hair of the self-portrait. (Thanks, Curtis) |
