Canadian artist Jon Rafman has approached Google Street View technology in a very different way from most users. Scouring the streets through the comfort of his computer screen, he’s come across some very interesting images – some incredibly beautiful, others a pretty sobering reflection on a part of society most of us aren’t often confronted with.

All images are completely accidental / coincidental, having been taken by the 9-lensed cameras attached to google street view cars.

The project, entitled ‘9-eyes‘, is ongoing and has been produced as a book too. See more here.
