An Aussie cyclist has recreated a controversial Nirvana album cover using GPS software to overlay the iconic baby artwork over a map of Adelaide.
Pete Stokes, 45, spent eight hours riding across the city to draw the outline of the Nevermind cover, which features a baby underwater grabbing for a banknote attached to a fishing hook.
Using exercise-tracking app Strava, his 150km journey from Rostrevor in the east to Fulham Gardens in the west was imprinted over a map of a city.
He craftily sketched the baby's facial features by looping around the CBD, before weaving in and out of suburban streets to trace the infant's outstretched limbs.

'It’s whatever takes my fancy at the time. Nirvana has its place in my record collection,' he told Guardian
