“This experimental map was produced for Princeton University’s International Networks Archive, an organization dedicated to finding a new way of mapping our world. The INA believes that geography is becoming increasingly irrelevant, and that there should be a new system of mapping, based on global transactions instead of geography. This map is an exploration into this theory, and reconfigures 23 world cities based on travel time between the cities instead of distance.”

“I went to the Victoria Albert Museum here in London and homed in on the photography section. While gawking at a photograph I overheard someone whining, ‘I liiiike it, but what is it, whaaatís the point?’ I looked over and saw he and his group looking at a photogram. Perhaps, I thought, if he had read the accompanying text he might have been more appreciative, but he was too busy looking for something ëgood’ to strike him, like say a Cartier Bresson image.”
