You probably have this in your kitchen, but you've likely never thought to put it under a scanner.
Polyvinylidene chloride is a fancy name for what most people refer to as saran wrap, but usually it's used for wrapping up leftovers -- not for creating trippy artwork.
Mixed media artist Bruno Levy started scanning saran wrap after seeing the results of moving around and scanning another household basic, aluminum foil.
He told Mashable, "I initially started playing with the scanner trying to find materials to optimize the distortion and colors that were created during the scanning process. I became interested in reflective materials and tried scanning many different kinds of materials: mirrors, metals and different plastics. In the end, these became abstractions of the materials."
Viewing the images at different scales also yields different viewing experiences. In close-ups, the colors coalesce into other forms. Who would have guessed saran wrap could look this cool?
