Looking Outwards – Information Visualization

Although this project is not interactive, I find the images captivating. It was created by Colombia’s Spatial Information Design Lab and presented at the MOMA.

The project aims to depict the impact of incarceration on certain neighborhoods in New York City, mainly focusing on Brooklyn.

Guided by the maps of Million Dollar Blocks, urban planners, designers, and policy makers can identify those areas in our cities where, without acknowledging it, we have allowed the criminal justice system to replace and displace a whole host of other public institutions and civic infrastructures.


More information about the project can be found here and here.
