An exploration of tangible vs virtual in relation to real and perceived value. Using google image search, we browsed through some of the most expensive and often famous jewelry in the world, the low-res images we found were stolen, doctored, then transferred to leather, creating a tangible new incarnation. With the expense and intricacy of the jewels stripped away, their essence and visual intensity are extracted. Printed and scored leather.

i would rock pixelated gear. I think it would be cool to paint a car with oversized pixels, so that your ride would look like something out of the original need for speed on ps1. you’d see a lot of double-takes, thats for sure.

These are great! When and where will they available in Australia?
OMG THAT IS GENIUS!
interesting perspective on what society values
the pixels look uncomfortable to wear though. just a thought
I think its brilliant.. Altho every time i look at it my eyes try to refocus cause it looks blury…. oh well :p
Eh. I think it's a neat thought experiment, but there are more attractive things to do with pixels in accessories. As Dan said, they're kind of painful to focus on. I'd prefer to have an 8-bit tie.
