Photomosaics are images formed from a series of smaller images or tiles.
Silvers, founder of Runaway Technology, created his first Photomosaic as a class project while a student at the MIT Media Lab. When he graduated, he turned the idea into a company. Since then, Silvers' award-winning Photomosaics have been commissioned by LIFE, Newsweek, and Wired magazines, MasterCard, Vice President Al Gore, Microsoft CEO Bill Gates, and many others. Silvers created a portrait of Marilyn Monroe with LIFE covers. For Newsweek he took 900 floral images to compose a likeness of Princess Diana.
