On present
Mapping the human impact on earth:
- People inhabit
- Land surface managed by humans
- Land area used for agriculture
- World‘s forests
- Extinction rates
- Protected areas
*Missing graphic information: deepest and highest buildings; mapping the constructional sites on the planet‘s water, mapping the objects around the planet (satellites etc.)
Regarding to maps rise the questions and create speculation of (im)possible future:
- How wide?
- How far?
- How deep?
- What is the limit for density?
- How many layers?
On future – conversations with developers or m2 = $2
- Water as constructional site?
- When we will reach the stratosphere?
- How about the solar system?
Main actor in the story
Human – main input
Variables – size (noifert), habits/activities (eat, sleep, work, excrete), time (hour, day, month, year)
On proposal:
Point clouds and distorted grids for future urban development outside the planet boundary.
