Erik Johansson -- more on making the impossible real

Pop Photo
has a posting up about a talk that Erik Johansson gave at TED last year; I missed the video when it came out, but this artist completely rocks me. (See my story on him from last year.) It's the combination of insanely inventive ideas, meticulous assemblage, and the fact that they weirdly all look so real. And I am in awe of his work process -- it takes a seriously smart eye to craft photos and image-editing in the way he does, not to mention ones as complex as cars passing in two dimensions.

Check out the images on his website.
