Modern-day Monet?

From the website: Elliot Anderson, a software engineer turned new-media artist, has taken tourist photos uploaded to the Web and turned them into works of digital art.

Making Art From Tourists' Digital Photos

From the website: First, he built a search engine to mine the Web for "tagged" photos of places like Niagara Falls, Yellowstone National Park and the Grand Canyon. Then he used software to create a composite image for each destination in the form of a translucent film image. Finally, he placed the film in a lightbox--an encasement that highlights the negative with a fluorescent light--to show off the layered effect that comes from creating a composite image, or the "average" viewpoint, Anderson says.
