Weekly FFF- Title: Linked
Title: Linked ©2008 Carol Cooper
This weeks FFF (Fresh Flash Friday) inspiration came from a few sources, first talking and thinking about “Social Art” - what it is and what it means. Also how to interpret & visualize the theme “People” within that context.
Here is a quote I pondered on the subject as well:
“Everything can be linked together in some fashion, in either a physical, psychological, or symbolic manner.”
Buckminster Fuller

Cris Orfescu’s website & online portfolio
LED Digital Mural to Highlight Work by Cris Orfescu
Commuters coming to Boston on the Massachusetts Turnpike now have a new landmark: a large LED digital mural outside WGBH’s new studio complex in Brighton. Every day, from 6:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., the digital mural features a new image or series of images drawn largely from that day’s TV or radio programming on WGBH or from other sources of content that reflect WGBH’s mission. Embedded in the building’s exterior wall, the approximately 30-foot-by-45-foot display of light-emitting diode (LED) panels is visible to eastbound MassPike travelers from approximately a mile and a half away.
In honor of the Cambridge Science Festival, on April 26 the WGBH’s digital mural will feature the work of Cris Orfescu.
As part of this year’s Cambridge Science Fair, the Boston Museum of Science will be featuring NanoArt, an exhibition intended to promote a greater understanding of nanotechnology among the general public. Nanohedron will present a slide show featuring Orfescu’s works along with other nanoartists.
What a great pleasure to have participated in Cris’s NanoArt competition and Festival which was held in Finland last May.
Congratulations Cris!! what a great opportunity to get your work out there in BIG STYLE!
