  The drawings resemble simultaneously open computer windows and banners, graphics that have become part of routine with multitasking, and visual pollution of online advertising. Without the actual content, or rather, revealing only the broken image icons, the shapes become simple geometries, and when printed onto translucent paper, appear to float.

All the drawings in the series were made by brokenpage.com’s web art. Since it is an audiovisual work, Mendel focuses on the sound interaction with the site to create a drawing from a musical performance that does not exist in other records, except in a random graphic representation.
