Commodity Fingerprint — The Lens

Look at how much sentence length varies. Natural writing varies its rhythm; templated or mass-produced copy is statistically uniform. Very low variation reads as commodity content — unless unique named entities break the pattern.

The site’s value proposition is highly unique and resistant to competitive copy-pasting. Phrases like ‘Russian Criminal Tattoo Archive’ and ‘Soviet Bus Stops’ are highly specific intellectual properties. The only template fingerprints detected are functional commerce markers such as ‘Your cart is empty’ and ‘Related publications,’ which serve the user rather than filling space with fluff.

Commodity Fingerprint is read from the page structure first: templated copy tends to repeat the same heading patterns and shapes seen across an industry. Below is the heading hierarchy captured, then the known cliché patterns for this industry to weigh it against.

In Soviet Scientific Institutes photographer Eric Lusito takes us on a journey through time, space and science. Gigantic control panels, monumental telescopes, inexplicable machinery – the facilities he documents might be found in comic book and graphic novel fantasies or the science fiction of Jules Verne and H.G. Wells.

Photographer Christopher Herwig (author of the Soviet Bus Stops series and Soviet Metro Stations) has travelled 10,000 kilometres in his quest to record this overlooked artform. He has documented the characteristics of each region – from Pakistan in the north, where intricately painted trucks often have a curved wooden peak at the front, symbolizing a princess’ tiara; to Sri Lanka in the south, where tuk tuks might equally be painted with holy deities or the Joker from Batman.
