Art imitates games imitate life imitates art

Micah Ganske's Look Into My EyesAfter graduating from Yale's School of Art earlier this year, 25-year-old Micah Ganske set out to explore what our games might be like in the future, when technology has advanced to the point where video games "accurately mirror reality." He writes, "This photographic series is about simulating this eventual simulation by placing the viewer behind my eyes."

The series of images that he put together won him first place in Adobe's 2005 Design Achievement awards. The New York Times has put put up a slideshow detailing how one of the images (the one pictured here) was composited.
