Joseph Delappe, Work in Progress, 2012, (working title "The Terrorist Other"), polygon sculpture.

Joseph Delappe is working on a new sculpture created from extracted Taliban avatar data from EA's Medal of Honor fps. As he explains on his website, "I've taken a Taliban fighter from this controversial Afghanistan based shooter to be realized as a 12 foot tall sculpture in orange corrugated plastic. This is a half scale mock-up of what will be a 20-24' tall version that I have been invited to build for ISEA Sydney 2013." (Joseph Delappe) This photograph is priceless.
