Featured keynote

The Projection Problem

CartographyInstitutionsAI

Every map is a set of choices. Some are mathematical. Some are political. Most become invisible once the map is treated as authoritative.

The Projection Problem explores how cartographic conventions, redlining, organizational incentives, and automated classification can turn selective representations into seemingly objective realities.

The central invitation is simple: before you accept the map, ask who made it, what it was made for, and what its omissions make possible.

Formats: keynote, lecture, or facilitated discussion. Content and length can be adapted to the audience.
