In the creation of a hypertext mandering, I have&nbsp;simultaneously built a space for that collapsing to occur - a structure for an aimless digital pinball game, jumping from one space to the next instantaneously.&nbsp; Check it out here.&nbsp; <img width="2388" height="1668" width_o="2388" height_o="1668" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/63a84a16c5c348bdb8c2e25696ac57be1a0cdb26202f939dbcd1a5e0ac3454a9/home.gif" data-mid="178682947" border="0" data-scale="92" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/63a84a16c5c348bdb8c2e25696ac57be1a0cdb26202f939dbcd1a5e0ac3454a9/home.gif" /> <img width="2388" height="1668" width_o="2388" height_o="1668" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6af693e9ad7f3107f08c90f27f2f9e72745b5b581fb5a7c4ec9ec734e5ded535/orangecampus.jpg" data-mid="178683010" border="0" data-scale="92" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6af693e9ad7f3107f08c90f27f2f9e72745b5b581fb5a7c4ec9ec734e5ded535/orangecampus.jpg" /> https://alexisewood.com/state-of-mind-state-of-mine Fri, 19 Aug 2022 21:59:42 +0000 Alexis E Wood https://alexisewood.com/state-of-mind-state-of-mine uc berkeley 2020 - ongoing research&nbsp; state of mind, state of mine &nbsp; What lies at the intersections of fringe political movements, digitalities, and climate change?&nbsp; <img width="5472" height="3648" width_o="5472" height_o="3648" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/31e892549d2da56316bbae4f5f61fb0d9b3097fc55261695914a867a92ecf5e4/1A1A1678.JPG" data-mid="188021489" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/31e892549d2da56316bbae4f5f61fb0d9b3097fc55261695914a867a92ecf5e4/1A1A1678.JPG" /> <img width="5472" height="3648" width_o="5472" height_o="3648" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f37551a8417fbd965a74932f803155d20e243672133c75313b899aadc13ddd76/1A1A1703.JPG" data-mid="188021531" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f37551a8417fbd965a74932f803155d20e243672133c75313b899aadc13ddd76/1A1A1703.JPG" /> https://alexisewood.com/dead-cartographers-society Fri, 19 Aug 2022 21:59:42 +0000 Alexis E Wood https://alexisewood.com/dead-cartographers-society UC Berkeley2021 - presentstudio.geo-? dead cartographers society An undergraduate/graduate student organization created to bring together cartographers and cartophiles of all disciplines on UC Berkeley’s campus.

Projects hosted by the studio work across maps and media to produce critical and collaborative geographic work focused on the question of how we represent our worlds. The studio a non-exclusive space and welcomes all thinkers and creators from across the Arts, Humanities and STEM, at all stages (faculty, graduate, undergraduate), and at all levels (pro or novice). The studio has monthly meetings where we discuss our projects, troubleshoot, debug and speculate.
