About the piece
Donkey Kong (Miyamoto, et. al.,1981) was the first appearance of the Itallian plumber we now know as Mario. While this game's early '80s arcade popularity predates most of today's engineering students, it represents the amazing results that a small development team can produce. Today Donkey Kong is ranked as the 3rd most popular arcade game of all time, selling over 65,000 units.


Currently this work is visible at the E2 building at UCSC, it is scheduled to be removed on or before May 1.

To get enough of the colors needed, about 14,000 post-it notes were purchased This is what 14,000 post-it notes look like:

Thats great. Really really fucking great.

It hardly even looks like 14,000 post-it notes, but what you did was pretty rad.

hahahaha, this is the coolest thing i've seen in a while.

those pictures are awesome and Donkey Kong was fun, but Donkey Kong Jr. was BADASS.

my vote's for Mario as antagonist.

Fuckin a!

thats fair cool.

When it comes to the materials that were used, it's pretty genius.
Nice composition!
