I have 413 Facebook friends and in one week I saw more then 100 of them in RL. I wanted to create a work of art about virtual friends so to do that I visited them in person. I got a picture of me with lost friends, childhood buddies, ex-girlfriends, family, and people from high school I didn't talk to. I asked them about their RL friends, asked for a physical souvenir, and took their pulse to be used for a 'digital painting' of lightning bugs. The 'painting' is a wall mounted laptop running a looped program.
