Concept #3

I really don't like any of the work that i have come up with so far. This is because the style and concept aren't solidified in my mind yet. Also, Gianni's comment that I am more interested in the aesthetics of the maps than the socio-political concept I was toying with is really right. So, I think that I need to alter this concept to make it fit in better with the map aesthetic, and i need to keep the imagery consistent with a regular map. This doesn't mean that it has to be boring at all.
An idea that I have is to feed off of the notion that when people travel they are very conscious of security. I could use imagery relating to a particular country and get information from the Australian Bureau of Statistics regarding the number of australians that travelled there (or similar) to assess security situation and how it is viewed in our minds as Australians. Travel advisories will also be helpful.

My aim is to create an interesting piece of web art that captures and enhances the aesthetic of a map and says something about personal security in the world.
