a simple information graphic depicting the world population as pixels. the first pixel represents 'you', the rest is everyone else currently alive on planet Earth (6.5 billion).
see also state of the planet.
Upon examining the link ( http://www.royalsapien.com/pop1/ ), I noticed that as one scrolls to the right, the graphic seems divided into two sections, with the lower half as a gradient of colour, ranging from an almost rust red to blue.
I wonder: does this represent something in the graphic, or is does it merely have aesthetic value?
