Artistic Footprint

Nowadays, people are migrating from formalized education and are now at least gaining insight on their tangible worlds through new means. They are gathering at their computer screens, magic 8 balls, and tabloid magazines to get answers for all these “how comes” that before the digital revolution, could only be answered by with a library card, and well – when was the library ever cool?

Oddly enough, it seems that no one has thought to figure out what these people want to know, and it seems as though the best place to find out is the google autosearch function. This is the same method used to create individually markettable targets in retail, but I think it’s far more entertaining just to see what’s concerning people. Interesting questions that I think show people reaching out to relate themselves to a standard or norm. Some of these google queries might strike you as shockingly introverted, ignorant, or fearful, but others might pose the realities of how the average citizen sees their world.

Keep in mind that google has created these auto completes based on the lower mainland area.
