GPS tracking can be an artform

GPS artist Yasushi “Yassan” Takahashi started out his career as a GPS artist in 2008 by proposing to his girlfriend by making a 7 163.67 km long GPS drawing spelling out “Marry me” stretching across the whole of Japan.

Since that successful start he has done 1 400 GPS artworks and has drawn over more than 100,000 kilometers in 24 countries.
