Across the Mainland

[2020]


Across the Mainland explores the multiplicity of data at the intersection of representation and analysis. This hobby project animates domestic air travel over one 24-hour period, and uses the derivative data produced each frame to generate graphs of overhead flight schedules for all 423 U.S. Census-designated urban areas.
