Image Made of Code Looks Different Based on Your Browser
via MOTHERBOARD
This portrait looks different depending on the browser you view it in, because it’s not an “image” at all. It’s pure web code that your browser renders into a drawing every time you load the page.
PureCSS Lace is the latest of digital artist Diana Smith’s code portraits inspired by Flemish baroque oil paintings, joining PureCSS Francine from May 2018. Along with a few retro-inspired posters and a woman in neon-glowing profile, the pieces are created from code, instead of embedded .jpg image files that look the same no matter how you view them.
