Can you publish both versions? If not, I’d say it would depend on the audience. If it’s pretty broad, I’d say small labels would be helpful.

That’s why Pathologic 2 is one of my favorite games— it takes the conventional tenet that “problems must be solvable” and says “no lol”

Just looked this up– very cool. Wish I could learn more about the designer but a quick search didn't turn anything up.

Updated this map with a few meaderies that I had missed, thanks to Texas Longhouse Mead. I hope that I got all of them because I'm running out of room...

David Nuttall @artimaps.bsky.social has produced some stunning and decidedly physical maps, especially in his ongoing Human Terrain series, in which he renders maps on human bodies. Other cool physical maps on his website! artimaps.com/human-terrai...

Thanks so much! I published articles about them in Cartographic Perspectives and CaGIS if you’re interested.

This was introduced to me by @wilsonism.bsky.social@kanarinka.bsky.social ran Boston's evacuation route system and recorded her breath while doing so. Speakers were placed in jars and played the recordings. One of my favorite "physical" maps! www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUhp...
It takes 154,000 breaths to evacuate Boston

Environmental Artist Stacy Levy created this map for the Penn State Arboretum, showing waterways around State College. It was sandblasted into Pennsylvania bluestone, and when it rains, the water flows through the map features as it would in real life: www.stacylevy.com/projects/rid...

Here's a map from a student in my advanced cartography course last fall, Brendan Pham. He 3D printed and hand-painted a map of Tussey Mountain, a local ski resort. Slopes were color-coded according to their difficulty.

Evan Applegate has made a number of really stunning illuminated maps– this one is 4'6' and hangs in an office building, showing physical features of the Americas: radiantmaps.co/the-americas

Here's one of my own– tactile flood maps that I developed for my dissertation research. I published a couple papers on them, and there's a short blurb on my website here: www.harrisoncarto.com/tactile
