randomly came across work by a Finn artist called Antti Laitinen, who recently constructed a work called 'Self-portraits by a map'. It is based upon a pair of orienteering maps in Finland (Oulunkylä near Helsinki and Luukkaa at Espoo). Superimposed on the map was his face, then he created his selfportrait by running around his face but on the features of the map, traced by GPS. Weird? Oh yeah. Fun? Kinda.
You can see both the results at -

So - does anyone know if this fellow is a regular orienteer? Does anyone have these maps?
sunlit forest blah blah,
