Get ‘em in quick folks, your 15 minutes are nearly up. As position art has skyrocketed in popularity by the past week or so (it seems, anyway), we’ve found yet another artist who has drawn his face via GPS. Best of all, that one actually looks the closet to valid, considering all the flaws and erratic lines that we’d truly expect to surface when traveling with a tracker. Essentially, Antti Laitinen drew an image of himself onto a map (numerous times in

a variety of locales), and thereupon proceeded to walk the lines that were drawn — navigator in tow. The end conclusion is what you see above, which is nothing nearly as elegant as prior “attempts” that we’ve seen, but likely a much better representation of how the process works. Masterful work, Mr. Laitinen.
