Michael sez, "Stella Brennan is a New Zealand artist who concentrates on the strange iconography of digital culture. Yet her work often uses decidely "analogue" technology. Take, for instance, her painstakingly embroidered (pixel-by-pixel) needlepoint rendition of the Mac OS desktop. The funny thing is that by the time she finished it, the operating system had long since become obsolete."
