A Good Use For Floppy Disks

Artist Nick Gentry of London must see things from on optimistic point of view if he is able to turn forgotten technology into unique artwork.

“The whole world was totally reliant on these physical media formats. Now suddenly we are at a time where they are obsolete, replaced by countless intangible data files,” says the artist himself.

Aside from being visually pleasing, I also find that this odd artwork represents how quickly we discard old technologies as we grow further and further as a civilization. Every new idea that we conjure up is only a small part of the endless stream of technological advancement.
