Jim Woodring was such an odd, but wonderful, choice of artist for this project. I thought his surreal style worked so well as a visualization of what at the time was newly called “cyberspace”. This could have been a totally flavorless corporate thing instead.

You put it perfectly! I strongly agree and came here to say what you and ncmncm said first. He's one of my favorite and most surrealistic comic artists!

His web site is currently broken but it usually works, and has lots of awesome stuff on it. I've let him know, so I hope it will be back soon.

http://jimwoodring.com/ (EDIT: http://www.jimwoodring.com/ )

But in the meantime:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Woodring

...Oh wait, on second try: SOME variations of the url work and some don't:

http://jimwoodring.com/ and https://jimwoodring.com/ : broken with wordpress error messages

http://www.jimwoodring.com/ - works perfectly but just shows "jimwoodring.com" in the URL, but copying and pasting it gets http://www.jimwoodring.com/ -- is this a Chrome thing??!

https://www.jimwoodring.com/ - works halfway, you get the text without the pictures, which is no fun.

Chrome has hidden "www" in the address bar for a long time, I believe.
