Welcome to day 34 of the 100 Days in the news project. For 66 more days I will be pulling news stories from my Google reader and making artwork about it!
Today’s inspiration is:
from BLDG BLG
The Atlas of Hidden Water
I come across today’s article with joy and twitchy reserve. UNESCO has made public maps of the world’s water reserves in an effort to “help pave the way to an international law to govern how water is shared around the world.”
Hmm. I have been looking at and reading about maps lately. It seems that as soon as an area as imaged the human brain begins to not only attempt to understand the imaged area but to control and influence it also.
I will keep it short and sweet today: I wonder if we will see in coming years an ever more “rare and exotic” market in waters from all regions and ages. I also wonder if first world countries will vie for power in areas where there is water the way they fight over land for oil today.
Today’s project is a witty comic:
Total Cost of Materials: $0
Amount of time spent: 30 min.
