Sign of the Times

TIME Magazine featured a special cover for its Dec 25, 2006 to Jan 1, 2007 Person of the Year edition. The Person of the Year was you!

Yes, that’s right, you! The magazine celebrated the
Web 2.0 revolution for bringing together the contributions of millions of people and making them matter.

User generated content; things such as this
Blog, MySpace, YouTube and Wikipedia are all about community and collaboration – people like you and me sharing the things we feel matter with each other through the computer screen.

Driving the idea that it’s you who will shape the future of the information age, the magazine cover uses a reflective panel in the format of a computer screen.


To create the cover, Time Magazine had to especially commission in secret 6,965,000 pieces of reflective Mylar film!
