The Pixel Business

02 Oct 2003 by Jason Fried

I just love this pixellated knock-off of traditional business-friendly stock imagery. Especially these classics: The multicultural handshake, the 15 minute break, and on the lookout for the get away car.

I reminds me of this artist who "replayed" significant historical events in the look of the SIMS videogame. He had Kennedy getting shot, the beating of Rodney King, the Vietnamese girl running from napalm, the monk self-immolating himself.

Why would anyone buy a high res version of a low res image? You could resize the low res version with no loss, or failing that, use flash or streamline to trace the bitmaps into vectors.

Why would anybody pay near $200 for one of these images? Yes, they are cool. No, they aren't cool enough to buy.

Low Resolution $59.00 US
Medium Resolution $159.00 US
High Resolution $179.00 US

Now, who is smart enough to buy the big one?

Great music video from the same artist, for a very nice song at Punk... not diet!
