After Dark: Junk

By

MIT Museum

The image features the phrase "AFTER DARK" repeated multiple times in bold, white, capital letters against a black background. The words are arranged in a grid-like pattern, with consistent spacing between each repetition. A large, irregular black shape cuts through the design diagonally, partially obscuring some of the text and creating visual contrast. The overall effect is dynamic, with the overlapping elements drawing attention to the "AFTER DARK" text.

We're celebrating the art and science of junk at this month's After Dark!
