A live portrait of Tim Berners-Lee (an early warning system) is a drawing made from two live cameras located on opposite sides of the world and eleven time zones apart from each other. The image updates every sixty seconds and so as the earth rotates and orbits the sun, night becomes day and day becomes night, which makes the image invert every twelve hours or so |
