Scott Blake

     Scott Blake was born in Tampa, Florida. His style of art is the use of barcodes to make art. He would use pixels that will show up and dissipate to make a piece seem like it is animated. He started to do this around the Y2K scare and that could have influenced him, but it isn’t sure where this barcode style of art came from. It sort of just popped up.

     Scott’s art has been in magazines such as: The New York Times, FHM, and Adbusters. He has been asked to do work for private collections such as for Jane Fonda and many people have his work in their collections. The creators of Photoshop also recognized his artwork. They recognized him at the Adobe Design Achievement Awards. He also received a B.F.A. from Savannah College of Art and Design.
