Can You Draw the Internet?
I like the whole custom craze in the “designer” vinyl toy world because I find it fascinating to see how different brains artistically interpret a single concept.
Can You Draw the Internet is one such collaborative project.
The idea:
Children today are growing up in a world of technology and communications. They have never experienced a world without the internet, with every part of their day consumed by mobile phones, websites, computer games, apps, Xbox, you name it. We took this thought and ‘thought’ it would be interesting to find out what their perception of the internet actually is, by way of scribble, drawing, or piece of art. Then, to make things even more interesting we thought it would be great to get the creative industry involved. Why? To find out who’s the more creative. The industry with all of it’s wisdom, or the kids with their vivid imaginations.
Half of the contestants are adult artists…
And half are children…
It’s quite interesting to see the range of designs in both categories. Have a look for yourself.

You’re website is full of such utterly fascinating observations. I love your view of the world… pretty, dark, and substantial.
Thank you.
