Behind the scenes
In previous generations, the term "happy go lucky" referred to a carefree person with no troubles. Today, terms like "living the dream" are rooted in irony.

In Brendan Dawes' artwork, he dives into an Instagram hashtag - #myhappylife. His code is meant to provide a visualization of this sentiment. The results are fascinating, presenting perhaps more questions about us and how we are all on an individual search for what makes us happy. Dawes captures our nature, which is anything but simple; his artwork sheds light on just how abstract and complicated we truly are.
