Here is a link to his website which not only has a great gallery of all his work but also goes through his working process explaining how he pieces together his images.

Although he is not technically a photographer his work made me start to think about how much we rely on technology in our modern day society. Maybe I could think about this as a political issue, looking at the influence it has over us without us really realising it. What would happen if we didn't have these technologies.. what would our world look like? Is technology a good thing or a bad thing?
These kind of statements on how technology controls the way we live our lives have come up in a lot of science fiction movies and tv shows like The Terminator and The Matrix, which ask us how much can we rely on technology and still be in control of how we live our lives. Although it may not be quite as obvious as technology controlling our body and direct actions, could be interesting to look into for this assignment.
Below are some more photo's I found that also show this idea of technology and it's relation to us.
