Jasper Johns. (American, born 1930). Map. 1961. Oil on canvas, 6' 6" x 10' 3 1/8" (198.2 x 314.7 cm). Gift of Mr. and Mrs. Robert C. Scull. © 2008 Jasper Johns / Licensed by VAGA, New York
Reflecting on his choice of easily recognizable images, Johns said that he was interested in "the idea of knowing an image rather than just seeing it out of the corner of your eye." The map of the United States, in its ubiquity and iconicity, is "seen and not looked at, not examined." Preserving the overall proportions of the country and the shape of its states, Johns's energetic application of paint
subverts the conventions of cartography, as do the stenciled names of states, such as Colorado, which is repeated in several locations. Map invites close inspection because its content is both familiar and imaginary.

A map of London and environs, dated 1852. This area is now part of Greater London. At the time, it comprised the City of London, City of Westminster, and parts of the counties of Middlesex, Essex, Surrey, and Kent.
The built-up area in 1852 was not much greater than what is now called Central London, with part of the East End. There was not much development west of Mayfair, which had many of the aristocratic mansions.
One feature of the map is the railroad lines entering London. Four of the main stations had already been built. One feature of the map is the railroad lines entering London. Four of the main stations had already been built. Euston was first built in 1837, and rebuilt in something like its present form in 1849. Paddington was opened in 1838, and was rebuilt in 1854. Waterloo was opened in 1848, and took its present form in 1922. Kings Cross was opened in 1852.
Other important stations which had not yet been built were Victoria (1860), Charing Cross (1864), St. Pancras (1868), and Liverpool Street (1874). Other stations are on the map, but I presume that they have since disappeared.
The map was made by George Cox, and published by the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge. It seems appropriate to geotag it with St. Paul's Cathedral.

Map of Mexico with U.S.-imposed border after historical U.S. expansionist war and theft of land.
Immigrants do not "take" jobs, because there is not a set number of jobs in society. Every worker--included undocumented workers--creates the need for more jobs, for more goods and services.
Anti-immigrant bashing is an attempt to divert from the reality that the banks and corporations are trying to force an already impoverished class to pay for this capitalist economic crisis by using divide and conquer campaigns. This neo-fascist organizing is fueled by white supremacy.
There are no borders in the workers' struggle: Workers united will never be defeated!

Version 4 of my social network map.
The last one with Ping.fm on it, as that service is going away. This is also the first version I've done since I stopped using Facebook.

Each pixel in "original" size is 5 square miles.
These are all 3015 15-mile-square places in the world where there was a cluster of geotagged pictures in close proximity. The tourist/local split is basically worthless at this scale, where every square is locals at the edges with maybe a dot or two of tourist-dominated area somewhere in it. Tourists may take more total pictures in some areas, but their locations are always more concentrated.

Planning map for BART lines and stations.
In this version, the Peninsula would have been reached by Bayshore, and BART would have run to Daly City through the Twin Peaks Tunnel and a new parallel tunnel.

Everyone gets lost in downtown Boston. These girls on the Common are going over their tourist maps.
I really liked the outcome of my previous experiment, so I created a new map using the same technique - but this time, the text inside are the recognizable capital cities around the world. see how many you can spot!

A map of London's population, with each dot representing 50 people and colour-coded according to ethnicity:
White - red dots
Black - blue dots
Asian - green dots
Mixed - purple dots
Chinese and other ethnic groups - orange dots
The map is inspired by Eric Fisher's similar maps of US cities. Go look at his! www.flickr.com/photos/walkingsf/sets/72157624812674967/
