We recently got an email from Chris Garguilo, an artist and instructor for the New Media Arts program at Kapi‘olani Community College, University of Hawai‘i. He’s used HYPE to create artwork for the school’s faculty biennial show – which is going on right now at the Koa Gallery in Honolulu.

I wanted to do something that visually represented Google’s spider and logfile record-keeping of our digital footprints that we leave behind (ie. Google constantly at work… indexing, caching, logging, etc.), and when I came across HYPE, and specifically ObjectPool, I immediately knew that I had found the right solution.

Even though you’d have to travel to Hawai‘i to see the actual installation (oh darn!) you can also check it out online: Google: Digital Footprints.

Thanks Chris, for using HYPE and for taking the time to tell us about it!
