Mona Lisa made out of PC parts



I am oddly bemused by this reproduction of the Mona Lisa, made out of motherboards and other PC parts. Entitled 'Technology Smiling,' this art work is on exhibition in Beijing. The use of the garishly-coloured innards of our dull, everyday PCs to create a tangible reproduction of an artwork and the choice of artwork itself- the Mona Lisa, with her ever-mysterious smile- add up to a very clever commentary on our relationship with technology indeed.
