James Bridle's maps to find your destination -- or get the latest traffic info. The London-based coder/publisher/marketing consultant recently released his trippy take on Google maps that allows users to create kaleidoscopic views of anywhere in the world.
Rorschach tests (also called ink-blot tests) were developed by Swiss Freudian psychiatrist and psychoanalyst Hermann Rorschach in 1921 to test psychological responses to open-ended images that often resembled spilled ink or milk, depending on perception.
"For a while now, I have been thinking about digital maps," Bridle writes. "In part, this is the New Aesthetic at play; one aspect of it, the way we see and represent Earth with our new tools."
