Scott Blake - Bar Code Art

Bar Code Jesus

I created this portrait of Jesus using my first refined barcode program. The individual tiles look like real barcodes, but the halftone goes beyond regular density patterns. I created a scannable barcode signature, in the lower left corner using the UPC lines from a Pepsi 2-Liter.
