==In media== Pixelization has also been used for artistic effect, notably in the art print ''The Wave of the Future''<!-- by whom?-->, a reinterpretation of [[Hokusai|Katsushika Hokusai]]'s ''[[The Great Wave off Kanagawa]]''. In this updated print, the image of the large ocean wave shifts from the traditional style of the Japanese [[woodcut]] print to a pixelized image and finally to a [[wireframe model]] [[computer graphics]] image.<ref>vorpal.us: [http://vorpal.us/2007/07/wave-of-the-future-is-now-the-past/ "Wave of the Future is now the Past"]. Retrieved July 13, 2009</ref><ref>vorpal.us: [http://vorpal.us/img/waveofthefuture.jpg "High resolution image of 'Wave of the Future'"]. Retrieved July 14, 2009</ref> ''[[Westworld (film)|Westworld]]'' (1973) was the first feature film to use [[digital image processing]] to pixelize photography to simulate an android's point of view. The 2010 third-person cover shooter [[Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days]] also used pixelization for artistic purposes, as nudity and headshots are pixelated in the game, to make the game appear more like [[user-generated content]].
