PDA, Personal Digital Art or Pop Digital Art, pays homage to the Pop Art movement and the proliferation of handheld electronic devices. The work loosely resembles an oversized personal digital assistant. The screen displays changing compositions of flowers over a continually moving background. The wave-like motion of the background resembles pulses of communication, a reference to technologys ubiquity. The work is my first one that explores composing a subject on shifting ground.
