Congratulations to Bert Monroy!
Bert is an incredibly gifted digital artist doing incredible work! (I took a Photoshop class with Bert back in 1997 — I was incredibly impressed back then, and I think you will be as well when you see his work.)

In case you can’t read the fine print:
- The image size is 60 inches by 300 inches.
- The flattened file weighs in at 6.52 Gigabytes.
- It took four years to create.
- The painting is comprised of almost three thousand individual Photoshop and Illustrator files.
- Taking a cumulative total of all the files, the overall image contains over 500,000 layers.

First of all, my thanks to Mr. Joseph Byerwalter for this resource/link. I haven’t read this story; however I was intrigued by the user interface design here and it made me think of some related items/topics here:
I would have loved to see some more multimedia integrated into Daniel Lieske’s fabulous artwork — sound effects/audio/music and/or the capability of hearing the author read the story. Also, perhaps some interactivity may or may not add something here. In any case, this is a piece of the type of thing that I believe we will see much more of on devices like the iPad — as well as on Internet-connected televisions:
Incredibly-powerful, interactive, multimedia-based
methods of relaying one’s story or message.
Also, such endeavors open up a slew of potential future opportunities for our students (artists, musicians, sound engineers, writers, programmers, interface designers, user experience experts, etc.) — as well as chances to practice their creativity today.
Per Mark Macho:
You and your students might enjoy www.10muses.com. There is instant access to the TVchannel sites of the whole world for a starter, arts around the world and much else, popular fun but also a simple way to learn about how others around the world perceive our time and its innovations.
Our tagline is ‘the global view.’
If you look at ,say the New York Times, you will get news from China, but filtered through an American reporter and an American editor. We grouped media so someone could see what the Chinese themselves are saying.
We provide the links to the preeminent publications. But whether it is about design or politics it is all ‘straight from the horse’s mouth.’
I am American and I think our inability or rather failure to really see other perspectives is harming us in every way–in the wallet, in defense, in noticing developments.
As you will notice there is a place on every topic to ask questions and get an answer from someone on the ground who really knows. What is the best club for House music in Moscow?…for instance. We have team members from every continent.

I don’t know much about this site, but being able to get another perspective — from someone in another country — seems like a good thing to me. Thanks Mark for the resource.
