4.0 out of 5 stars Good intro to Salavon, January 11, 2007
This review is from: Jason Salavon: Brainstem Still Life (Paperback)
This is a good introduction to the work of Jason Salavon, with a lot of illustrations of his work. The essays are short, but well written.

Salavon's work involves many creative means of using software to manipulate different kinds of data (photographs, movie frames, shoe sale statistics, etc.) to produce visually attractive and thought-provoking works of art.
