For my digital art remix I chose to transform a photo of Mount Fuji with regards to the photo referencing four million people living under it. The article in the magazine described how commercialized the area has become due to tourists visiting the volcano. This has positives and negatives to the people residing near the mountain. A positive is the tourist bring in revenue and jobs , a negative however is some are buying second homes or hotels are being built which raise the average cost of living. In mt remix I wanted to have Mount Fuji take a step back, and imagine that there was not any as much developed land in proximity to it as there is now. Having Mount Fuji be seen simply as a natural attraction, and not as a selling feature for real estate.
