 Don't really know where to begin with this work. I picked up a book while randomly browsing the library at Beaubourg, Centre Pompidou. I trust this process, and patience pays off when you discover something so striking and inspiring. As suspected, I'm not the only one who loves his work so here are some images and sources for more information and examples of his work.

My favorite fact is that he founded and taught at MIT at the Center for Advanced Visual Studies. Not all art is fluff.

please also see this article from the NYTimes for further discussion into the scientific value of his work

The art of turning something we see everyday into art. I remember on a trip to Prague there were amazing band posters all over the streets and I tore them down to save them. I have no idea where they are now, but I wish now I could find them and plaster them to something just for the sake of living on.
