Nine Eyes: A Human Perspective on Google Street View

Nine Eyes: A Human Perspective on Google Street View | Design + Ideas on WU: "Google’s Street View has made it easier for us to find our destinations, but has it influenced us in other ways as well? When Google sent out a fleet of automobiles armed with GPS units, laser rangefinders, and multi-eyed cameras, their goal was to make it easier to navigate places around the world. But the cameras caught much more than street signs, storefronts and city scenes. They recorded a never-before-seen side of humanity, urbanity and photography itself."
