Urban Fruit Street – Wrapper is a print on demand project that transforms the virtual world of Google Streetview panoramas effectively into physical objects.
Full Description
A fruit wrapper is a clever low tech, well-tested and cozy way to turn 2D into 3D. Urban Fruit Street – Wrapper uses this trustworthy method to transform the virtual world of Google Streetview panoramas effectively into physical objects. Each wrapper is one panoramic picture, a bowl of fruit can be a whole street or neighbourhood. Via our Service you can hold this bowl, you can finally hold Google’s world in your hand, and decide for yourselves if you want to carefully keep its imagery for future generations, or happily throw it away after consuming.
If you send the artists (contact(at)polakvanbekkum(dot)nl) the location of your liking, they produce the streetview panorama of your choice. All wrappers are numbered and signed. You will receive two Wrappers, one copy to fold and one to hang on the wall (if desired)
You can earn a discount of 25 percent of the price for sending us the story that goes with you location, another 25 percent if you post the text on you own social networks (with a link to the project), and another 25 percent if you ad a relevant picture to the text/post.
