Scott Blake (10)

Scott Blake was born in Tampa, Florida in 1976. He is mostly known for his artwork created by using barcodes to create a bigger image. His work has been displayed at several galleries as well as featured in magazines, like FHM and The New York Times.  Blake's barcode use began around the time of the Y2K, which was the time when there was a craze with barcode artwork.

I'm more than sure I've seen Blake's barcode art prior to doing research, but I'm unsure where I've seen it at. After reading about him I realized one thing, art can be made out of anything. A canvas or paint aren't even necessary to create something. Whenever I look at barcodes, I have not once thought about how something spectacular could be created out of them. So crazy!
