New Silk Roads

Exploding Cities

I was a graphics intern for New Silk Roads, a project exploring urban growth in Asia. I worked on a part of the project called Exploding Cities, which used Flash to simulate the rapid growth of cities in Asia. I collected and traced city maps in Illustrator, matched them to recent satellite imagery of the cities, and animated them in Flash.

New Silk Roads was on display in the Museum of Contemporary Art, Castille and Leon, in Spain.

More information about New Silk Roads is available at their website.
