Running the Numbers
If you told me to imagine what a million of anything looked like, chances are you’d be shit out of luck and I’d have a headache. This is where knowing Chris Jordan comes in handy. He takes the guesswork out of visually quantifying quantity with his latest installation, Running the Numbers, which is touring the country through 2011. His latest book of photos features the visualization of 1,000,000 trees cut down every year; 9,000,000 American children without health insurance; 2,000,000 plastic bottles used every five minutes; 2,300,000 adults incarcerated in U.S. prisons.
You made some good points there. I did a quest on the subject and located most people will agree along with your blog.
