Mauricio Arango

Mauricio Arango will create a reading-news-area in which visitors will be able to sit comfortably and read local and national newspapers. On the wall, there will be a projection of a map of the world connected to a database fed by news coming from several international newspapers. The visibility of each country on the map will depend of how much media coverage each country receives. Countries receiving little or no attention will disappear over time. Users will be able to interact with the map and learn about the countries on it and read stored news over the last 50 days.
