Chinese botnet series

These three artworks are almost completely generated by thousands of computers or virtual computers located in China, and a computer that I control somewhere else in the cloud in an inadvertent artistic collaboration. I performed very light manual editing on the images for presentation to humans. Usually these kinds of images aren't as visually striking at this series. I suspect that the origin of the internet traffic which created these images may be espionage or similar related, but decided to repurpose the results as art because they look nice.
