Photomosaics are the wave of art's future. Brilliantly engineered, these computer collages offer a stunning new look for some very familiar faces. Disney's timeless characters make their debut as Photomosaics in this lavishly illustrated volume. From Mickey Mouse to Hercules, all your favorites are here in their colorful, computer-generated glory. Photomosaics are formed by blending thousands of small images, called tiles, into a larger, breathtaking picture. The Disney characters are formed from tiles depicting scenes from the films that made them stars. The result is spectacular, and best of all, no special equipment, gadgets, or skill is needed to appreciate them. From Walt Disney's earliest cartoons and classic films to today's golden age of Disney features, from the most beloved mouse in the world to the man who introduced him to millions of adoring fans, Disney's Photomosaics™ is a mesmerizing, one-of-a-kind collection of the best and most beautiful scenes in Disney film history. Introduction If a picture is worth a thousand words, what about thousands of pictures? What if those pictures are not just randomly selected but rather are carefully chosen and arranged elements of a new vocabulary? In an attempt to answer these questions, I have selected tens of thousands of elements from many of Disney's wonderful ani- mated films to represent my favorite Disney moments. I call these arrangements Photomosaics. Photomosaics are my unique medium for visually telling a story. Because these mosaics are made from images rather than solid colored tiles, the messages are conveyed on more than one level. There is a relationship between everything you see. Look from afar and view the overall subject. Come up close and discover unexpected treasures. This is not unlike the world itself. Look at the Earth from space and it forms a beautiful image. Now come in close and see all the people, animals, and other unanticipated and exciting characters existing in harmony. Each element is complex and can be seen on many levels. What I have tried to accomplish with Disney's PhotomosaicsTM is to create images that reveal more and more as you investigate them more closely. I loved using the world of Disney as my palette for this new medium. Thank you, and I hope you enjoy them. Robert Silvers www.photomosaic.com
