From Rhizome Artbase

On January 1st, 2007, 4AM EST, I launched the one simple pixel project (www.onesimplepixel.com). Attempting to create one single image, 1000 x 1000 pixels in size, through the collective contributions of 1,000,000 people. Each person chooses one single pixel and personalizes it by giving it a name, choosing its color and optionally a comment or quote for the rest of the world to see. The theories are countless. Many first thought the result will just be a collection of random pixels. However as the image slowly appears it makes one wonder “what will the image actually become?” Only one million people contributing to the one simple pixel project can answer that question.
I think I have decided to become a collaborative artist. This is my first REAL project. Please give me some feedback and add a pixel.
