Sculpture embodies lossy copying using much-copied house-key

Sculpture embodies lossy copying using much-copied house-key: "

Artist Daniel Bejar had a key copied and then a new key copied from it, and so on, until the information embodied in the original key had been lost. He calls the resulting piece 'The Visual Topography of a Generation Gap': 'A copy was made from my original apartment key, then a copy was made from
that copy. This process was repeated until the original keys information was
destroyed, resulting in the topography of a generation.'


'The Visual Topography of a Generation Gap'(#2, Brooklyn, NY)
(Thanks, Fipi Lele!)
