Aaron Koblin - The Sheep Market



TheSheepMarket.com is a collection of 10,000 sheep made by workers on Amazon's Mechanical Turk.
Workers were paid 0.02 ($USD) to "draw a sheep facing to the left."


So our boy Aaron Koblin commissioned 10,000 people to draw a sheep facing to the left, pays them each 2 cents for their effort, and then gets all the acclaim and credit after compiling them? I like the way this guy thinks, haha.

View the entire work at The Sheep Market.

Kidding of course. Dude is super creative and out there. Don't believe me? Spend 5 mins of your life and head over to The Wilderness Downtown. Enter in the address you grew up on, turn your speakers up - and sit back and enjoy.
