Cartography and infographics meet contemporary art, science and ideas. Over 130 creative minds make sense of our exterior and interior worlds through intriguing and imaginative maps of their own devising. Some contributors have translated scientific data into simplified visual language, while others have condensed vast social, political or natural forms into concise diagrams. Many have reworked existing maps to subvert their original purpose or to present an alternative view of reality. Others play with the map’s commitment to truth by plotting invented worlds and charting imaginative flights of fancy.
