My friend Lindsay Fuchs recently completed a mural in our friend's house based on a TerraServer satellite photo of the neighborhood.
She overlayed the image in Photoshop with simplified geometrical designs, made slides, projected the onto the wall, traced in pencil, and then painted in various shades of purple with the house itself in orange. The project took her weeks and was just completed.
Interestingly, she oriented the mural with South up because that's the direction you're facing when looking at it. At first it's disorienting, but then it makes all the sense in the world. Nice to see someone taking this developing panoptic eye that's surrounding us and making it something personal — even homey.
