Flight Patterns

This collage of computer-generated images taken from flight data is beautiful. It’s also scary, as it shows the monumental task of reducing airplane emissions given the huge volume of flights over North America. It’s part of a project by artist Aaron Koblin whose work includes the brilliant Sheep Market project.

Once it makes the jump to humans, the H5N1 flu will likely use these patterns as a life support system.

Oh, I’m guessing the emissions from all those con trails will get us first.
