Google book

Containing 21,000 common words found in most dictionaries, UK-based artists Felix Hayes and Ben West have compiled images that are the topmost Google image search for the accompanying words when searched for using the powerful internet sleuthing tool. Comprised of JPGs, GIFs and PNGs, the alphabetical pictorial book spans over 1,240 pages. In speaking about the project West commented, “It’s really an unfiltered, uncritical record of the state of human culture in 2012. I would estimate about half of the book is revolting medical photos, porn, racism or bad cartoons.”
