Description
Lagoogleglyph 2 is a distributed, global artwork that inscribes lagoglyphs into the environment and makes them visible to the world. It consists of a pixelated lagoglyph, referencing a rabbit head and specifically made by Kac for the eye of a satellite used by Google. The artist hired the same satellite used by Google and produced a photograph identical to the kind used by Google Earth. Lagoogleglyph is visible to anyone on the planet via Google's geographic search engine.
