Satellite Art: One Woman Tries to Create Google Earth Murals

I find this article useful and relevant for all of us as we try to create work which is related to and shown on the interconnected web--our work is "satellite painting" even as we work differently in medium.

Also, there are always unknown elements in the work--Dilworth had no clue that she wouldn't get on Google Earth for such a long time, during which her murals faded and for her, were less effective as an artwork. It's always good to see that sometimes, our concept doesn't work out, it doesn't read the way we hoped it will, or something in the process diminishes the final product. Do you think that the work is still as effective as a concept, or do you think it "failed"?
