This is very cool–an artist, Jorge Colombo drew this week’s cover for The New Yorker using Brushes, an application for the iPhone, while standing for an hour outside Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum in Times Square. The application records the brush strokes, which are replayed in the video above using the Brushes viewer app. “look for a new drawing by Colombo each week on newyorker.com.”
