Why do I include poetry in a presentation about data visualization? Because cartography IS poetry. The ocean is not literally blue. The land is not literally green. Symbolism, metaphor, language, cultural context and history all inform map making. Both exercise the same brain-parts.

So I’m just supposed to believe that this EVIL DOLL made SODA. I don’t fucking believe it - who would give him a business loan. What collateral does he have? Unrealistic.

Approx 70km walked in 3 days. Lots of familiar sights & walks to revisit again and some new stuff.

My favourite hotel on earth (at least in Montreal). It is really a brutalist low rise motor hotel high a top of a concrete plinth. It remains gorgeous & perfect 60 years later. Heaven.

In this map @researchremora shows us the tree canopy height across Paris. Urban greenery matters!

Afternoon walk
