Message from the artist: “How do you get a forward slash on the keyboard?” The first time I used the internet was not an easy experience and involved me reading URLs from a book containing a number of ‘useful’ websites. These were all fairly basic but never less I was hooked.
Internet forums and online chat rooms were a gateway to a wider world. The way in which we interact with technology continues to evolve, and never has this been more important than in the way we interact with the internet. Access to the sum total of all human knowledge is all but useless without some to search and make sense of it all. Early internet search engines tried to do exactly that, however, it was a difficult task. In fact, I remember the first time I used the internet.
Google not only indexed the contents of websites but used their “backrub” algorithm to help create PageRank.
How does one catalogue the internet? Early search engines attempted to predict the relevancy of websites based on whether they contained a specific term. However, Google was able to design a system that not only checked if a website contained a search term but also checked how many other websites referenced that site to determine its credibility.
The thinking was simple: if lots of other websites link to one site, it’s more likely to be a credible source. The more ‘Backrubs’ the better. So was born a search engine that has transformed the modern world. We “google” things now.
The demise of Yahoo can show that one day Google might themselves be a distant memory.
This artwork is my homage to a company I respect for helping shape the modern world.

Listed below are a few suggestions to help you take good care of your new print!
Our prints are wrapped with care in acid-free tissue paper and shipped rolled to ensure their safe arrival. To maintain their impeccable condition, it is important to store your print flat until framing.
It is advisable to keep your artwork in a space with normal temperature to avoid any unfavourable effects caused by extreme temperatures or humidity. We recommend framing your print behind glass to shield it from any environmental hazards.
When selecting a frame, we suggest choosing one with Art Glass. This type of glass will protect your print from UV damage and help preserve its colour and quality for an extended period of time.
