Imagine How Many by Margo Wolowiec is a woven polyester depiction of blurred text and floral images found on social media, distorted beyond complete recognition. It resembles a newspaper with a conspicuous “fold” down the middle, but its contents are undoubtedly drawn from Wolowiec’s practice of image aggregation and do not follow the clear formatting newspapers normally possess. Instead, Wolowiec has created an alternative publication of sorts, drawing in a third, comparative source of “networked” imagery and information, inserting the concept of publication and social media into her greater examination of the structures governing dissemination.
