Amazing Portrait of Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo (aka one half of french duo Daft Punk) by the very talented *fleuraime. The portrait took her over 100 hours, and includes the lyrics to 10 of her favorite Daft Punk songs – a true labor of love.

No. If I wanted text as art, I would to to a text-as-art blog, not a graph-based-humor blog. There is nothing graph related about this post. Every day I get closer and closer to removing this from my RSS feed.
That’s quite the threat.
Agree.
So do it.
Could it at least *not* have been Daft Punk? Spelling “coming” correctly would help as well.
I know, right? Not a fan of Daft Punk myself. With the exception of the Daft Hands video below.
A Random Pooka- if that is your only love of Daft Punk, you’re missing the whole boat.
Brett hates fun.
Any XKCD readers might like this typography work I made: http://jrweinman.deviantart.com/art/Tiniest-Open-Source-Violin-166476238
Could you be kind enough to submit that to So Much Pun, please?
It’s kinda awesome.
Sure, and thanks
Woo! Daft Punk forever!!
*screams out random DP lyrics*
WORK IT HARDER MAKES YOU BETTER DO IT FASTER MAKES US STRONGER!
ONE MORE TIME! WE’RE GONNA CELEBRATE! OH YEAH ALL RIGHT!
BUY IT USE IT BREAK IT FIX IT TRASH IT CHANGE IT MELT UPGRADE IT!
Those are the exact three songs of Daft Punk I have on my iPod….O.o
Haha, I’m such a Daft Punk nerd.
Lmao! XD
I’m a Daft Punk nerd as well so YOUR NOT ALONE! XD
Thank you for not making me feel lonely. :3
I am too, I can name any of their songs when I hear them.
Me too, but at least I know the correct lyrics.
Work it Harder MAKE IT Better etc
…Trash it Change it MAIL Upgrade it.
Yeah, they got some of them wrong.
I don’t care if it’s not a frakking graph. I like being taken by surprise once in a while, and this picture is AWESOME.
Oh, and yes I would love to see more text-based art.
me too me too – not as a regular feature, but I like surprises too

Here you go… ALL of the art on this site was generated by a man suffering from cerebral palsy ON A FREAKING TYPEWRITER.

Now that I’ve worked out how it’s made,
I don’t like it as much.
Where can I buy this piece of art?
Ahh yes, another terribly overrated artist that makes s**t.
Awesome s**t, you mean.
100 hours to make THAT? Really? 100 hours?
… Wow…
(Agree with Protspecd).
I decided to comment entirely for the purpose of expressing my own disbelief. Altogether that’s more than FOUR DAYS without breaks for sleep, food, showers or anything else. There is no conceivable reason why this should have taken that long, barring lots and lots and LOTS of pot smoking.
It would have been a lot easier if she just used the lyrics to “Around The World”…..
No Harder Better Faster Stronger? Oh well.
Probably one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a long time.
Epic Oh Yeah!!
I want more, but it needs to be on epicwinftw.
I’m sorry, but 100 hours on that is incredible overkill. It could be completed within a few hours if you know what you’re doing.
A few hours, no. 100 seems excessive, but to get the degree of detail I’d estimate around 20 or so at least.
I love Daft Punk! <3 They're awesome! Anyway, other than my little fangirl moment, I do agree that this should be on EpicWinFTW, and not GraphJam. I do love it, though.
OMG DAFT PUUUNK IS SOO FREAKING AAAWWEEEESOOMMEEE!!
I CAN’T FRREAKING EXPLAIN THEIR AWESOMENESS GOD DAMMIT !!
THEIR MUSIC ARE LIKE A FREAKING MONSTER !! HEEEELLLLL YEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!
…10 hours? I could’ve made a better one in photoshop in like 30 minutes
I put it on Stumbleupon and it’s gotten a zillion thumbs up and 17,000 views. Epic.
