Google Maps has become a standard web feature, used daily by everyone. But Google also offers it as material to be used by anyone through an API (Application Programming Interface). By means of this programming door, anyone can implement the technology and interact with it for their own means, thus packaging it as a new composite digital material. Like a physical composite material, this also is a construct of elements; satellite images, geo-coordinates, an interactive layer like zoom and navigation, and more. It is software that functions as a complex base-material to be used for further production. The work Google Maps as a Sculpture (2017) uses this API to mine satellite images as raw material. The work is based on the Internet work Google Maps as a Sculpture (2013), available through www.googlemapsasasculpture.com.
