In the past it was easier for cartographers to make maps, as the world was flat. Then with the discovery of the world being round made their job a lot harder. Here is a post-round earth sculpture returning the flat pages of the Atlas back into a sphere.

Pages of a Times Atlas from the back to the front, glued together. to make a sphere. The slice is 29% of the earth, which is the amount of land, with the other 71% as sea.

I created this montage a while back but never got around to uploading it. I shot and edited it together in June 2010 for a photo competition, and printed a big (36x9") plaqued print for a school auction (it did well!)

It took a lot of fiddling to get the right "slices" - a tiny piece that stands for a whole store - and I tried to get people in the shots where I could (cars were hard to avoid - they look weird cut up.) Varying the size of the slices and the colours of the dividers seemed to work best.

It's a concept I plan to repeat with other parts of other streets, eventually, and in theory they could run as wide as you like. It's interesting to see what stores have changed since then - retail streetscapes are in slow, constant flux.

Here's the description that went with it:

Malcolm Gladwell describes "thin-slicing" as our innate ability to reach conclusions using very limited information. If you've ever watched our neighbourhood streak past the windows of the 501 streetcar, you'll probably recognize each shop and restaurant from the quickest of glances.

This photo montage is made up of 26 "slices" of each business for two blocks on the north side of Queen Street between Booth Ave. and Verral Ave. It won first prize in its category at the Beach Photo Club's 3rd annual competition in May 2010.

On a marble chopping board rest two slices of rustic-looking bread with olives baked into it. Next to them is the heel of the remaining bread.

Caramel Slice cake is a heavenly combination of chewy caramel, crumbly biscuit and smooth chocolate. Preheat oven to 160oC. Line a 27 x 18cm slice pan with baking paper. Combine crushed biscuits and melted butter in a bowl. Press firmly into the base of slice pan and freeze for 20 minutes until set. Heat condensed milk, butter and golden syrup in a medium saucepan on medium heat.
