Here's a statement from the creator: http://dinakelberman.com/imgoogle/imgoogle.html http://dinakelberman.com/imgoogle/imgoogle.html The relevant bit: >Firstly, lots of people ask if it's an algorithm or something. It's not! Just me searchin google. >Secondly, a lot of people assume this blog is therefore made predominantly by using the "visually similar" function on Google Image Search, which is a totally reasonable thing to assume. While I definitely employ that function in my attempts to search thoroughly (and love it for it's own beautiful results), surprisingly little of the piece is actually constructed using it! Visually Similar appears to employ a logarithm based mainly on color percentages in an image, and as I'm Google is based more often in conceptual similarities than color-wash similarities, my searching is almost entirely relient on keywords rather than searching by image. Of course, there are times when Visually Similar has helped with a transition or section here or there, but overall, it's not the way I work.
