Floppy disks may seem like ancient relics to some, but they’re something I put to use when I’m shooting with my Mavicas. I also like the quirky geometric motifs of the 80s, and I absolutely fell in love with the cover of PC DOS 3.30. Like with many of my pieces, I always try to do something original with a borrowed idea.
In this case, the fundamental shape of the floppy disk was laid out using a public domain image of a floppy disk I found on Wikimedia Commons. I wanted to do something a bit more fun with the composition, and I landed on what you see after some experimentation. I also played with the colors a bit to give it a different personality. This is definitely one of the more unique pieces in my minimalist folder, although I still have a sizable collection of vaporware art in general that I have not yet shared here. You can still see the rest of my CC0-licensed work at the portfolio link above.
