Pixel and Grid

 “Grids function throughout society.” (p. 187) 

 Pixel art is interesting. There is a game named "Minecraft" which is made by pixel art. In our lives, we can see a lot of things made by pixels. Like the QR code. And when our website was bad, the pictures that we upload are very vague.

In this two picture, the pixel Pikachu and Snoopy were painted by hand. And it used the grid to finish a round thing. In my opinion, all living creatures are composed of round things. But we can clearly see the square grid and we also can see the images. That's so funny! Using eyes as an example! We can see the facial expression on Pikachu's face. The right eye was painted by using four little grids and it looks like a round eye. The left eye was painted by using two grids and it looks like a closed eye. And the Snoopy's eyes are ellipse, so it used two vertical little grids.

Those Disney Princesses are also made by pixel. 

It's true that grid function throughout society. All things in our lives have the element of grid, like the keyboard I use now. And we can know that the pixels and grids are used together usually. And they have a kind of hazy beauty. (Just like I see the whole world when I forgot to wear my glasses. 🤪)
