In a series titled, Postcards from Google Earth by Clement Valla, the anomalies, or glitches, within Google Earth’s system is celebrated.
The artist, programmer and designer hails from Brooklyn, New York and stated that, “At first, I thought they were glitches, or errors in the algorithm, but looking closer I realized the situation was actually more interesting — these images are not glitches.
They are the absolute logical result of the system. They are an edge condition—an anomaly within the system, a nonstandard, an outlier, even, but not an error.”
