Cars, Trikes, and More – Street View – Google Maps

(via)
When we first started Street View as an experimental project, we packed several computers into the back of an SUV, stuck cameras, lasers, and a GPS device on top, and drove around collecting our first imagery. Since Street View launched for five U.S. cities in May 2007, we've expanded our 360-degree panoramic views to include locations on all seven continents. We then moved to a van for a brief period, before switching to a fleet of cars that would allow us to scale the project throughout the US and around the world. We went from a rack of computers to one small computer per car, and then set to work refining our camera system to capture higher-resolution panoramic views. After several iterations of the car and camera technology, the latest car has 15 lenses taking 360 degrees of photos. It also has motion sensors to track its position, a hard drive to store data, a small computer running the system, and lasers to capture 3D data to determine distances within the Street View imagery.

Menno Aden - Room Portraits

by 3 others
Through challenging camera angles Menno Aden abstracts most familiar actual living environments and public interiors into flattened two-dimensional scale models. A camera that the artist installed on the ceiling of various rooms takes pictures downwards of the interiors. The resulting images lay out space in symmetrical compositions that look like assemblages stripped off any kind of objectivity. The views into private homes and secret retreats bring up associations of the ubiquitous observation camera. The notion of surveillance is systematically played out by the artist to hint at society’s voyeuristic urge that popular culture has made mainstream. Miriam Nöske

Once a symbol of industrial might and now ground zero for rustbelt blight, the Packard plant in Detroit has become an urban explorers' delight, graffiti artists' canvas, scrappers' cash in a city beleaguered by decay. BRIAN KAUFMAN/Detroit Free Press

Volkswagen. Le côté obscur. | Greenpeace

Notre planète – la Terre – est en danger. Volkswagen s’oppose à deux lois européennes stratégiques pour la protection du climat : la revalorisation de l’objectif de réduction des émissions, et l’adoption de normes plus strictes en matière de performance énergétique des véhicules. Sans ces mesures, la Terre connaîtra le même sort que la planète Aldérande : elle sera détruite par l’Étoile Noire. Mais tout n’est pas perdu. Nous sentons que la force accompagne Volkswagen.
