It goes without saying that the Storefronts Seattle program is all about “street views.”
What was exciting to learn last week, in the course of trying to direct an artist to a project space online, was that Google’s Street Views ™ on the interwebs had finally caught up with “actual street views” in the (literal) public domain.
Check out this little stroll down memory lane, thanks to Google’s plan to photograph every inch of the planet from robot-controlled vans:
John Fleming’s installation on the 100 block of 3rd Avenue South
Kristen Tollefson’s installation at 411 Maynard Avenue South in full bloom
Romson Bustillo’s installation on South King Street overlooking Hing Hay Park
Ben Hirschkoff’s beautiful painting on 3rd Avenue South
That is so great. Cast in time, forever. Well, until the next camera comes along for an update!
