Artist's Comments

So in this book called Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson, he writes about this virtual library. This book is chockfull of great literary visuals that just get your juices pumpin. So this is my take on it. Just skyscraper bookshelves with floating assistants that help you find what virtual book you need.

That would be the coolest place in the world to spend a Sunday afternoon. Or any afternoon, really. Your perspective is simply amazing on this.

This is really neat. I love libraries, and Neal Stephenson's books, though I've not read Snow Crash yet.

Hey, I'm here through browsing DA, and this is awesome. Libraries! And Neal Stephenson! I really like Hiro's (that is Hiro in the bottom corner, no?) expression, and the librarian's wig (and general historical get-up), and I really need to read Snow Crash again, because I don't actually remember the virtual library... *is ashamed*

I thought the Librarian was supposed to like a stereotypical "cool college professor."

Still... awesome job.

Awesome! Even though The Library isn't actually shown like this(or even shown at all, it seems to be more like a Wikipedia-type thing), this is still an awesome visual that would be great to see in a movie adaptation or something!
