Transform a regular photo into a high-tech artwork made up of blocks and connectors resembling a circuit board.
Creating the Blocks
First, we'll create convert the image to blocks using a combination of Photoshop filters.
Step 1
Open a photo you would like to edit. We recommend using a high resolution image of at least 1000x1000 pixels. It is also fine to upscale a low resolution image before using this effect.
Step 2
Duplicate the layer (Layer> Duplicate Layer or Ctrl+J).
Step 3
Activate the top layer and apply a Mosaic filter (Filter> Pixelate> Mosaic) with a cell size of 16 square.
Step 4
Apply a Find Edges filter (Filter> Stylize> Find Edges).
Step 5
Apply a Median filter (Filter> Noise> Median) with a radius of 2 pixels.
Step 6
Apply a Minimum filter (Filter> Other> Minimum) with a radius by 4 pixels.
Step 7
Finally, invert the current layer (Image> Adjustments> Invert or Ctrl+I).
