Aaron Koblin: The Sheep Market
| 3 minutes |
Aaron Koblin talks about his use of Amazon’s Mechanical Turk marketplace to explore the ‘emergence of new labor systems in the information age’. His largest project, The Sheep Market, entailed paying people $0.02 to draw a sheep facing left. Pointing the individual artists to a custom drawing tool, he captured the drawing process for each one. Accumulating a total of 10,000 sheep, all of the drawings are now visible at TheSheepMarket.com.
