New York graphic designer Joe Silkie has created an extraordinary portrait of Max Maven, based on a photograph by Sonia Sans. If you click here, the picture will load. It's in PDF format, which means you will need to have Adobe Acrobat Reader to view it.
There are actually four pages to this file. The first page is the portrait. If you scroll down, you'll see increasingly magnified screens, revealing that the portrait is actually made up of hundreds of smaller images, drawn from offbeat sources including antique astrology and science fiction.
The portrait is copyright © 2002 by Joe Silkie, and commercial reproduction rights are reserved. If there is enough interest, we may produce it as an actual poster, or perhaps as a T-shirt. Let us know what you think!
