The work of Michael Mandiberg
Michael Mandiberg is a Brooklyn based artist, programmer, designer, educator, and bicyclist. Apart from being very well known for selling all of his possessions online, he is also respected for his numerous laser cutting works of art.
Mandiberg combines the technology of laser cutting with old books that used to be a significant point of reference for us. This specific section of work is about the promise and the failed promise of technology, and its potential to connect people or not connect people.
You can find images of Mandiberg's work in progress on his Flickr account. An interview with the artist and some of his work can be seen here.
