{summary}Google God by Jeremiah Palecek
Jeremiah discusses Google in terms of Theism
Google is the closest to an Omniscient (all-knowing) entity in existence. She indexes over 9.5 billion Web Pages, which is more than any other search engine on the web today. Not only is Google the closest to all-knowing, but She also sorts through this vast amount of data using Her patented PageRank method, making said data accessible for us mere mortals.
Palecek seems to approach his painting of a gmail login in a similar context where i think my scluptures will reside in. Palecek is a very big influence in the direction of this project.
So, the painting above is the way Gmail looks as of Tuesday, January 16. As it changes through the years (probably many years since google rarely changes their design), the painting will stay the same. I like that.
This is one of the main themes I touch on, the permanence of this art will be in direct contrast with the infinitely changeable nature of the internet.
