Exercise: IMG collage

Create a single web page that displays side-by-side a collection of images from different sources online. You should have at least 7 different images, each from a different (website) domain. The collection should be coherent, about a single thing; for instance, the images might be:

• in some way related to yourself (self-portrait)
• in some way related to someone else (portrait)
• related to a topic or theme (thematic collage)
• share a common visual aspect, such as a color, or pattern, or shape (a "swatch", in the traditional design sense)
• share a hidden / cryptic connection (a puzzle?)

Think of a possible use / intention for your collage. How might your collage contribute to your personal research, or perhaps serve an illustrative and surprising function.

Collage as Critique: Historically, collage as a form has been used as a technique to look critically at mainstream / normative media but taking elements out of their original popular context and re-contextualizing, in an attempt to reveal links that would normally remain unseen, unspoken, or otherwise uncomfortable or problematic.
