Batman's Cellphone Sonar System Ripped off Contemporary Art Installation




If you've seen Batman The Dark Knight, then this image probably looks familiar to you. It is a picture of an art installation by Mark Hansen and Ben Rubin, called Listening Post. As they describe it, the piece "culls text fragments in real time from thousands of unrestricted Internet chat rooms, bulletin boards and other public forums. The texts are read (or sung) by a voice synthesizer, and simultaneously displayed across a suspended grid of more than two hundred small electronic screens."

STOP WHINING. You should be impressed that your artwork perked Hollywood. Your next step should be bettering yourself and upscale your work to become commercialized. Or you can remain a whining poor moneyless art bum. You decide!
