What you’re looking at it is a 17,000 push-pin mosaic mural, a product of three revisions and a total of two and a half semesters of work. The final revision took a whopping two months of work by the CIS Student Association at the University of the Fraser Valley, and it’s currently sitting in the Student Computing Center over there.

17,000 push-pins, wow — impressive work! And, whether you like the piece or not, I think we can all agree that these kids should be expelled for ganking office supplies.
