He graduated from Pratt Institute’s Communications Design program and returned to teach there from 2009 to 2014. His gallery work has been shown in cities around the world including New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Calgary, Mexico City, and the Philippines. He published his book Plotted: A Literary Atlas in 2015 and he joins me today to talk about his book, Cinemaps: An Atlas of 35 Great Movies.  Listen to hear what exactly a Cinemap is, how long it takes to make a single map, and what some of the challenges are in putting together these unique pieces of art. Books mentioned in this episode include:The Rest is Noise: Listening to the Twentieth Century by Alex RossInvisible Man by Ralph EllisonThe Culture Series by Ian BanksThe Dark Tower by Stephen KingFilms mentioned in this episode include:The Goonies directed by Richard DonnerRaiders of the Lost Ark directed by Steven SpielbergStar Wars directed by George LucasGuardians of the Galaxy directed by James GunnMad Max: Fury Road directed by George MillerMetropolis directed by Fritz LangKing Kong directed by Merian C.
