Signals Crossed by Micheal Massaia

SIGNALS CROSSED

is a portfolio that attempts to explore the phenomenon and effect of the proliferation of animated LED billboards that are currently blanketing New York City. Using moderately long exposures to capture the hidden, chaotic, and, at times, beautiful patterns that occur in between and during the animated advertisements, was my attempt to display these patterns as a true analogue for the overstimulation that the digital age is having on the collective thought process.

The end result is the intending ads melting away, and what remains, is a mirror of its affect on the viewer.
