We are simply delighted to have the opportunity to share with the commuters of the LA region. There's really a lot to discuss in the exhibition, and we hope you can check it out for yourself! More info here: art.metro.net/artworks/exh...

We worked with many different groups from across Los Angeles, including data and trail cam photos from Arroyos & Foothills Conservancy, as well as members of the Gabrieleno/ Tonga peoples. This wall is about Coyotes and their SCAT! HA!

This wall is all about Pumas and features a life-size cat jumping over the audience. The side panel shows the life of one of the most famous mountain lions - P-22!

While each wall is special, this design shows a disturbing dataset. This huge 7x10 foot dendrogram shows the "Special animals" that are at risk of extinction, created in the shape of the California Poppy. Huge thanks to @pstuffa.bsky.social for the help and collaboration!

Because I know you want to see it up close, here's the map! You'll see every building and most sightings for hawks, puma, coyote, and snakes! There is so much detail, we really want people to get the "god's eye view" of the LA area! We worked on it for months, so we really hope you enjoy it!

We are extremely excited to finally share this incredible 3D map created in collaboration with @julianhoffmann.bsky.social!! As you can see, its already a crowd favorite! It shows you a high-fidelity 3D map of the entirely of LA county (as well as a fair-bit of Orange county!)

The exhibition is made up of 5 large walls, several with large cut outs. Each wall has a different focus, this one is about the California King Snake. /2

As an Isotype obsessive, I have suspected that its methods had been also co-opted by the Nazis, but I had never seen the results until I visited the Vienna museum!! Amazing and chilling!

We’re staying at a “alm” in Austria that takes 3 cable cars to get to and we’re staying here for the next 3 days. I think the star gazing will be epic!! Elevation 1,738M
