--

A selection of illustrations inspired by some of my favourite podcasts and their best episodes.

No. 5 / 99% Invisible - Ten Thousand Years

In 1990, the federal government invited a group of  geologists, linguists, astrophysicists, architects, artists, and writers to the New Mexico desert, to visit the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant. They would be there on assignment...





Thanks for looking!
