UK artist Kyle Bean presents his whimsical interpretation of Moore’s Law as it applies to our ever-shrinking cellphone technology. Using the familiar appeal of Russian nesting dolls, Bean creates an informal visual history of the mobile phone from its early days as a stylized shoe box with an antennae – Motorola’s DynaTAC 8000X – to the current design of Apple’s iPhone, which hardly resembles a phone at all.

  1. Sometimes visual cues are the ones that seem to give the best perspectives. This is great, thanks for sharing!

  2. So cool to see the evolution… there was a point they got even smaller – thankfully they started to grow a again.

  3. A lot has changed.. not just the physicality of the phone but also its usage.. Now more than making calls we want to capture images… All is good until and unless its bad…

  4. What a journey of evolution.. i think this qualifies to compete with the journey of man!!! http://www.cypress.com/
