nytimeswallpaper.jpgWallpaper designer A. J. Bocchino is recycling old issues of the New York Times in a more artistic way than tossing it in the blue bin. He's taking headlines from 1990 to 2005 and creating rolls of wallpaper out of them. He describes the process and outcome, saying he uses the headlines "as data for systems that generate complex networks and forms. The headlines are organized chronologically and color-coded according to subject. Global, national, and local events generate a continuous stream of news from which color patterns emerge. The actions of George Bush, Michael Bloomberg, the United Nations, Israel, Palestine, and North Korea, among others, all serve as raw material and influence the structure of my work." As with all good wallpaper—this stuff is pricey, coming to $1,000 per roll (each one being 10' H x 40" W). Guess print isn't dead just yet.
