Screensavers rarely depict bustling city streets or traffic jams and they almost never feature buildings or shopping malls. More often than not, they highlight an idealized nature. They take us to a place that most of us have never been but somehow feel like we know. The deserted tropical island with no tourists or hotels or kids a generic cliche, yes, but an appealing one that provides a momentary break from our day-to-day lives. This disparate relationship of analog to digital, real to virtual, is at the core of my work. - Jason Urban
