Senior Thesis: Digital Macrocosm:

Cyberspace. We use this term to describe more than just the Internet; it is a sort of “nonspace” made up of binary code where our interactions are portrayed and perceived differently than in the physical world. What would cyberspace look like if it were an image? Since we live in a three-dimensional world, what colors and forms could demonstrate our ideas of this abstract, dimensionless environment?

The text in each piece comes from one of two quotes: the first, by the media theorist Marshall McLuhan, describes his view of how electric technology has affected our being, and the second describes cyberspace as it was first coined—in the novel Neuromancer by William Gibson. Despite one being derived from observation and theories made in the ‘60s, and the other from a work of fiction in the ‘80s, the two intertwine to create an understanding that is still relevant in today’s depiction of cyberspace.
