Graphic Designer Inserts Error Messages Into Human Experiences





‘Human Error’ is an on-going series by Brooklyn-based graphic designer Victoria Siemer, in which she digitally inserts computer error messages over scanned polaroid films.



The polaroids depict images of broken hearts and seclusion, while the error messages prompt the viewer for an action—like to “erase all feelings” from the heart or to “move on” from a failed relationship.



Blurring the line between technology and reality, the series shows that mending a broken heart is often more complex, and that it takes more than a few simple mouse clicks to heal.
