I’m not quite sure what to make of this real-time simulation of the Earth’s CO2 emissions and birth and death rates (by country)<\/a>… But I find myself mesmerized, in particular, by the soundtrack and the way it adds rhythm, along with a sort of creepy (-crawly) beauty, to the map. It is, of course, a great time to be experimenting with different methods for visualizing climate change, and while this one doesn’t give us much insight into the ‘base of the pyramid’ (see my note on swine flu<\/a> and the connection between sustainability\/resilience and the political-economic pyramid), I like the way it grasps the importance of sound and of time in creating a feel for what’s being portrayed.<\/p>\n
